Hi David, While it might be better if you explained what you are hoping to achieve, here is one suggestion. Install Virtualbox or Vmware and install XP inside that container. >From there you can install Access. If you are just after a graphical database, you could install Open Office base. I think the package name is openoffice.org-base. It's not a standard component so isn't installed by default.
