I found the following document on the Census website on using Access to extract data.
Hope it helps.

Jason,
I used the detailed instructions on the Census' website for the state-wide,
block-level redistricting data and it worked like a charm (surprisingly!) I'll see if
I can find the link.

Subject: [CTPP] Question on 2010 Census data and linking to the Access file
Hello all
I was wondering if anyone had a chance to figure out how to import the 2010 Redistricting
data or the new 2010 demographic profile information into the Access files on the
http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/ , under
http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/01-Redistricting_File--PL_94-171/ and
http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/03-Demographic_Profile/ . I have been confused about
this process myself. Does anyone know of any good guides to help? Any ideas or
suggestions? I have been using the new American FactFinder 2 too, but that has been a
slow and confusing process too.
Thank you
Jason
