CoffeeFiend Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 whats the difference between SQL, Oracle, etc and MS Access?I'm assuming you meant "SQL Server" by SQL, as SQL is just a query language. SQL Server and Oracle are 2 of the most high end databases (the other being DB2). But they're just that -- a powerful back end. The data is usually accessed through a web application or a standard windows application programmed specifically to use it.MS Access is a simple database, with a easy to use front end, meant to be usable by average, everyday folks.are there MS Access alternatives?Filemaker Pro is their main competitor.
