MS Access and Delphi?

I am trying to create a small stand alone application for my son that
stores it's data in a MS Access Database. Usually I am developing client
server applications that connect to a SQL server, but I this case it's back
to basics. Years back I would have used BDE for this kind of thing, but in
this instance I would prefer to use MS Access.

I tried using the basic ADO components that came with Delphi. It seemed to
be fairly strait forward but it doesn't work as well as I would like.
First it doesn't like NULL fields and several of the find and filter
functions are not supported.

Does anyone know of a good reference/tutorial for using MS Access in
Delphi? Perhaps I don't have some of the options set up correctly?

I am not really interested in buying another DB engine because this is a
one shot deal, that I am doing for free for my son.
