If you do a Google search for "convert access to mysql", you'll come up
with a lot of options. The method that I use requires no software other
than Access and MySQL. Export the Access database as a CSV file. Then
use LOAD DATA INFILE to import it to MySQL:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/load-data.html

If you use phpMyAdmin, it automates the whole process. Just select the
Import tab and select the appropriate options for importing a CSV file.

I don't have Access installed on this machine, so I can't check, but
it's either what Murray suggests or File > Export.

Why not try the Access Help menu?
