What is a .ACCDB file?

ACCDB is the modern Microsoft Access database format. Created and opened by Microsoft Access.

Did you know
  • ACCDB replaced the older MDB format in Access 2007.
  • ACCDB swapped Access’s ageing Jet engine for the newer ACE, the Access Connectivity Engine introduced with Office 2007.
  • The new format added features the old MDB lacked, including multi-valued fields, attachment columns and proper AES encryption.
What Analyser reads
Open SQLite databases (.sqlite/.db/.sqlite3) and read their full schema in-browser - every table with its columns and row counts, views, indexes, triggers, the CREATE-statement DDL, and a sample of the largest table. Reads the WAL-mode sidecars too: the Write-Ahead Log (-wal) - page size, salts, frame and committed-transaction counts, and the pages it changed - and the shared-memory index (-shm) - valid frame count, database size and checkpoint progress. Also parses .sql dumps (dialect, tables, columns, INSERT counts) and identifies Microsoft Access (MDB, ACCDB).
Depth of analysis
.ACCDB is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
Open a .ACCDB file
Drag a .ACCDB file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
