### usage

var fruit = mdb('fruit.mdb')

fruit.tables(function(err, tables) {
tables.forEach(function(table) {
fruit.toCSV(table, function(err, csv) {
console.log(err, table, csv.split('\n').length - 1 + " lines")
})
})
})
#### Get tables

tables(callback)

Example
````javascript
var fruit = mdb('fruit.mdb')
fruit.tables(function(err, tables) {
tables.forEach(function (table) {
console.log(table);
});
});
````

#### Convert table rows to CSV rows

toCSV(table, callback)

Example

````javascript
var fruit = mdb('fruit.mdb')
fruit.tables(function(err, tables) {
tables.forEach(function(table) {
fruit.toCSV(table, function(err, csv) {
console.log(err, table, csv.split('\n').length - 1 + " lines")
});
});
});
````
#### Convert table rows to SQL INSERT statements

toSQL(table, function, backend)

Currently defaults to `mdb-export -I mysql` "mysql" backend; so generates mysql compatible INSERT statements. See [mdb-export -I](https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools/blob/master/doc/mdb-export.txt) for more backends.

````javascript
var fruit = mdb('fruit.mdb')

fruit.tables(function(err, tables) {
tables.forEach(function(table) {
fruit.toSQL(table, function(err, sql) {
console.log(err, table, sql.split('\n').length - 1 + " lines")
});
});
});
