About:
MDB/ACCDB Viewer is a native macOS application designed to open and inspect Microsoft Access database files without requiring Microsoft Office. It allows users to browse tables, view records, and execute queries directly on .mdb and .accdb files. This tool provides a straightforward solution for accessing legacy or shared Access databases on a Mac.
Key Features:
  • Supports both .mdb and .accdb file formats
  • Read-only access ensures database integrity
  • Intuitive table browsing and data viewing interface
  • Ability to run SQL queries against the database
Use Cases:
  • Opening Access databases sent by Windows users on a Mac
  • Quickly inspecting database schemas and data without a full Office installation
  • Viewing legacy data stored in older .mdb formats
Alternatives:
  • Microsoft Access (via Office 365) – Full editing capabilities but requires a paid subscription and is not native to macOS.
  • Base (LibreOffice) – Free and open-source alternative that can import Access data but often requires conversion.
