I agree that learning Access is a bear.

If I might make a suggestion, you could look at Filemaker Pro.

It is the best selling database for both Windoze and Macintosh. It's 
fully relational, multi-user and yet approachable even for those with 
no database experience.

And, of course, there are many fine books available to help you learn it.
