I just downloaded Autocad Electrical 2019, and i am getting an error saying "Error establishing connection to the catalog database (mdb) file". Reading other posts, its telling me that i have to use the migrate utility tool, but it is not showing up on my computer as an option. Any ideas?

Hi there,
On my application it is Project > Migration Utility. I have to say, it is pretty easy to zig when you should zag with this tool. If you have not used it I would suggest you do several hours of home work before jumping into it.
Good luck
I am making headway, but when it gets to the footprint_lookup.mdb, it freezes. The from to locations look correct. Do you happen to know why?
Hi again,
Sorry, I do not have a straight answer for you. I have seen the size of files cause things to work REALY slow. If you have double checked and everything looks right give it a little time. If there is any question about your workstation or if you are trying to migrate anything over a network or peer to peer file sharing, just try to give it some time. Go get a cup of coffee, check Youtube or Facebook call your mom, for a few/several minutes, if your lucky it is just the process struggling a bit.
Good luck
So i took your advice, and just waited. It finally finished. I looked at the log and it seems everything succeeded. A couple of entries came up as ignored, but i dont really care about that. However, when i insert, say a fuse, i still cant access the database. It comes up as the same error. However, i can do a catalog check, and i get the proper information for the block. Did i miss a step somewhere? when i go to autcad settings, everything is pointing to the right spot. I even check my wd.env file to make sure that wasn't overriding something. What do you think?
Also, thanks for your time with this.
I found it.....I decided to go through and open every table to see if i could find something weird, and one of my tables just crashed access. So i went in and deleted the table, and now i can connect to the database...
Thanks again!
