You can use Access, but I would stay away from A2K, unless you are
comfortable using ADO.  The downside of using Access in general is the back
end capabilities.  I think this is what Kevin was referring to when he
recommended Oracle, SQL Server, and Informix.

My experience with A2K and Visual Studio components is that it is torture
configuring, and requires the SP3 to get it to work.
