I have an MDB document that I need to view on my Ubuntu machine, I downloaded MDB viewer and when opening the file with it the application closes. Also OpenOffice DB viewer does not want to work.

Are there any other applications that I can use?


I think you'd better install the mdbtools-gmdb (http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/mdbtools-gmdb) through Ubuntu package manager, otherwise there are no guarantees that the package is binary compatible. (Lots of distros use .deb)


Re: Installing mdbtools, line should be:

sudo apt-get install mdbtools-gmdb

That's why you go the 'Invalid operation...' error.

(can't comment yet, hence the separate answer)
