Using Access to export or connect via ODBC is probably the safest bet.

If you don't have Access....

It's listed as "alpha" software, has no "home" page on Sourceforge and
looks to have been abandoned half a decade ago but you can still follow
the download link from freshmeat and grab a copy of MDBtools
(http://freshmeat.net/projects/mdbtools/). It includes tools to export
the schema, export the data as CSV and so on. It worked for my purposes
the one or two times I tried it.

Cheers,
Steve
