> Is there a free GUI for MySQL that is just as easy to use as access.

I don't think you understand, MySQL is a database engine like MS Jet, but there is no MS Jet GUI or anything, MS Jet is just a tool applications can use when they need database functions. MySQL can be useful for web pages that require customer and product databases, etc... It's a database engine and not a database program.

In that case your best bet would be to try the OpenOffice.org 2.0 preview build which has a database program (scroll down on this article to see screenshots).
