--- Comment #2 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
For general usage on setting up a connection to an ODBC defined datasource,
there is actually quite a lot of documentation out there, for example:

https://www.easysoft.com/applications/openoffice_org/odbc.html

much of the older documentation written for OpenOffice.org is still valid.

Note that ODB and ODBC are not the same thing - the first is the filename
extension, the second a protocol for accessing data sources which is made
accessible via a separate driver.

I am not aware of an ODBC-compliant driver which runs on Linux that will allow
you to gain access to a MDB file.
