Open format - Raw data
Due to the size of this database, data in MS Access format are broken into several parts. You need to merge (import) those parts into your own central database server such as MS SQL Server, Oracle, mySQL (not provided here) to view the entire directory. Merging such a database may require expert help (not provided). The whole database may take 10GB or more space in your database server.

This product is NOT A COMPLETE LIST of businesses of this region (country or area).

Open format - MDB File
We provide MS Access file (mdb) for raw data of certain products, to let the buyer export data from the directory to other applications such as MS Word, MS SQL, MS Outlook, MS Excel, etc.

MDB file is not required for general functions of the directory. The Infot directory manager bundled with the directory can work properly without the MDB files. Users purchase the MDB files only for export ability.

However, please be informed before you purchase the MS Access file.

1) Purchasing the MS Access file doesn't enable you distribute the original data beyond your unit. A personal buyer can not distribute the raw data to any other persons or business. A business buyer can not distribute the data beyond the company. Exporting or merging raw data into local business network, central databases, or other network-based platform require special business licenses from Infot for a fee. Exporting or merging data to databases or websites accessible to publish requires special publishing license from Infot for a fee. Printing, publishing or distribute the original data to outside in any format without written authorization or license is prohibited.

2) Original data can be too big to fit your target platform. MS Excel, MS Outlook, MS Word and some other applications may have a limited capacity to handle the size of the original data. 

3) Relationship between entries (companies) and categories (industries) in the MS access file may be normalized into separated tables. Understanding of "JOINING TABLES" may be required to get proper query results.

4) No technical support is provided for how to user the MDB files.

5) MDB files may be compressed in zip format and then you need a unzip tool such as "Winzip" to open the zip file.

Why MS Access file?
- Export raw data from the directory to other applications
- Communicate with other platform
- Use it directly in your own network environment
