Just transfer the .mdb files. If you need to write them to a CD in
order to do so, they'll be marked Read Only on the new computer;
you'll need to view their Properties in Windows Explorer and uncheck
the read-only property.

Just copy the YourDataBase.mdb file.
That contains everything

There are possible exceptions to this, but if you don't know how to
copy a database, they probably don't apply

The mdb file is probably in "My documents" on the old machine
It will almost certainly be a very large file, so If you can copy it
using a network connection, that would be best
