    Excellent suggestions. Unfortunately, I came up with nothing.
Interestingly, I can copy the database object in Access and then paste it
into any number of other applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.), where
it typically displays without problem.
    If I were to *manually* manipulate these files, I could easily translate
them into some standard format, but that isn't practical...
    Thanks.
