There are two executable files: MDB2DBF.EXE and MDB2DBF2007.EXE
The first application MDB2DBF.EXE supports MDB files only. It does not support Access 2007 format.
The second application MDB2DBF2007.EXE supports both MDB and ACCDB files, but it will work only if you have MS Office 2007 on your computer.

2007 Office System Driver. This download will install a set of components that can be used by non-Microsoft Office applications to read data from 2007 Microsoft Office system files.

The program supports command line interface. So, you can run it with necessary parameters in a batch mode from the command line or from Windows scheduler without human beings.
