Can't think of any resources off the top of my head, but I actually went the
other direction: started with MSSQL2000 and then started using Access. I
think MSSQL is easier, but that's purely a connection issue. The biggest day
to day difference between MSSQL, Access, and MySQL is how you connect. After
that, the SQL queries are essentially the same. Not a big transition between
any of them.
