The datagrid control should work. A very good number of activeX controls
will work with ms-access.
However, if you start using activeX controls, then you need to setup, and
use a "installer" if the application to be used on another pc. ms-access
does not come with a installer, and you open a HUGE can of worms.
I would exhaust all other possible solutions before you break down and use
the datagrid control (it should work, but you have to code everything
yourself).
If at all possible, you might want to use the built in controls (either
listbox...or continues form). I have some screen shots of using the built-in
controls and displaying data in grids here:
