Hi David,
The only issue I have with Access is reliability. I once had a dbf that I imported into access to run a few quick queries and the number of records returned varied when I added a few fields to the query.
At the time I tried it with access 2.0 and 95 and both were consistently wrong.
Access with MSDE would probably be a pretty solid combination though.
