Hi, Carter.
Is there anyway to download a trial version of Access?
Many online software vendors allow one to order Microsoft Access or
Microsoft Office online, and they will ship the software after they receive
payment. However, if you are looking to download Microsoft Access directly
to your hard drive from the Internet, I'm not aware of any legitimate online
vendors outside of MSDN who offer this mode of software distribution (MSDN
requires a subscription, though).
Just in case you were looking for a free version, while you can't download
it from the Internet, Microsoft offers a free 30-day trial edition kit of
Microsoft Office Professional 2003 (shipping & handling $7.95), which
contains Microsoft Office Access 2003. You can find the link to Microsoft's
Web page where you may order this CD kit, as well as many other links for
Microsoft's and other software vendors' free developers tools here:

You'll find links to many other free resources (compilers, source code,
samples, et cetera) for Access and VB developers on this Web page, too.
HTH.
