Are you talking about the just the tables or are you talking about other 
things (forms, reports, etc.)? If it's just the data, then it's actually 
quite easy. You can use several different tools to do this. This includes 
everything from an ODBC pump (e.g use the MySQL server as an ODBC data 
source) to a plain generated SQL text file.

If you are looking at using MySQL as the back end and Access as the front 
end, I can help you there as well.
