We've successfully implemented it but it isn't fun and IMHO, working with Access is a real pain.

If you are dead set on using Access then check out: http://pkgmaster.com/howto/casp_access_howto.shtml For the tutorial on how to setup sqllink:

You can get a fee converter from mysql.com. Look for the MyAccess download on this page: http://www.mysql.com/downloads/os-win32.html

We've used it to successfully convert an access db to MySQL.
