Depending on the how complex the DB4 database is, you can import the DB4 files into an Access table.

You may then need to tweak any relationships and possible data types.

If I remember correctly DB4 stores dates as a string where Access stores dates as a floating point number. There may be a bit of tweaking needed there.
