Shifting applics to Ubuntu ex Win XP SP II

Asked by uye

i'm a real newbie to linux since i'm trying to shift from Win XP SP II to Linux/Ubuntu 8.04LTS. With my Win XP box, I've developed some applics regarding saving, adding and editing and viewing of work-data. Now i'm trying to use my linux/Ubuntu 8.04LTS LiveCD install on my personal home computer and try to use it. With my WinXP, i've used MS Access as back end database and visual basic as front end for my applics. Want to know which to intall and updated with my Ubuntu to accomplish my tasks. Thanks in anticipation.--

There are many tools out there to import access.db into mysql.db, and even more sql interfaces (gui and text based).
One popular one is phpMyAdmin (http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php).
                                          Which is already in the synaptics repositories for instillation.

Can you help with this problem?
