Do you have VB?
I would recommend that you put a few forms, queries and reports together in your Access app.
This will demonstate the basics of a front end.
Buttons, events, text boxes etc.
After this use VB to re-create the same forms (don't worry about the database initially).
When you've had a play around with VB forms re-post here and "we'll" help you with the database side of things.
To get a basic understanding of this search for DAO or ADO in your Access/VB help.
Check out some of the example code, its a bit dauntng at first but is pretty simple once you know whats happening.
Hope this helps, If you need any other info just ask!
