MS Access is a front-end as well as a database. Think of MySQL as more
like MSSQL Server or Oracle -- just the database component. You don't
use SQL server to build an interface; you do that in Access and link
tables to MSSQL. Same thing with MySQL. You build the interface in MS
Access, Delphi, VB, C, Perl, whatever.
