Reading data from Access DB

I'm working on an app that needs to read data from an Access database, 
apply some conversions to all the data and write it out to a comma 
delimited file. My plan was to open the Access database and put it into 
a TDBGrid object so I could walk through each cell with the Col and Row 
properties. Unfortunately, these properties are protected so they are 
not available to the main form where the conversion method is located.

So, before I get hoplessly lost with this, is there a better way to do 
what I'm trying to do? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm a bit rusty with C++, but it's coming back, and I'm new to C++ 
Builder 2006 so please go easy on me...
