NAME
       mdb-export - Export data in an MDB database table to CSV format.

       mdb-export [-H] [-d delimiter] [-R row_delim] [[-Q] | [-q quote [-X escape]]] [-I] [-D format] database table

DESCRIPTION
       mdb-export is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.

       It  produces  a	CSV  (comma separated value) output for the given table. Such output is suitable for importation into databases or spread-
       sheets.

OPTIONS

	      acters.

       -d     Specify an alternative column delimiter If no delimiter is specified, table names will be delimited by a , (comma) character.

       -R     Specify a row delimiter

       -I     INSERT statements (instead of CSV). You must specify the SQL dialect.
