How to connect MS Access to Roots Magic 8

How to tidy up your tasks folder in RootsMagic 8 after you have imported a RootsMagic 7 database by using Microsoft Access.
I am using the 2010 Version of MS Access.
Before doing this for the first time I would suggest you copy/paste your RM8.rmtree file so that if you make a mistake you can simply replace your RM8.rmtree database with the copy you just made.

If you do not already have the SQLite ODBC Driver You need to download a copy off the internet.You can search for one using Google or download one from here:

Now follow these screen images substituting the path and name of your RM8 database accordingly
