    Well, with using the MyODBC drivers you could create and maintain a MySQL
    database through MsAccess.
    That way you could have the best of all worlds (please don't flame me for
    saying that). Using MySQL as the database backend, PHP for a web front end
    and MsAccess as an administrative GUI for your use.

    Just my 2 cents here
