Isn't Access an SQL database? Or since you post in this newsgroup,
you specifically mean SQL Server databases?
SQL Server is a server application that accepts data from clients. Clients
can be implemented in a multitude of ways, both as Windows applications
and web applications. You can write applictions in .Net, in Perl, in VB6,
in Java, in about every language. You can even use Access - this appears
in fact to be a common solution.
