Good Morning Erez:

Please note, our database is normally used within MySQL.
We are unaware of the complications of loading it into
the MS-ACCESS database.  Also our tables are *not* constructed
with foreign key relationships.  Our structured relationships
are stated in a special text file all.joiner:
	ftp://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/apache/cgi-bin/all.joiner
which is used by our table browser to enable structured queries
into the database.
	http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables

Also, our database is available via a public MySQL server:
