In one sense, there are lots...database products that are much better 
than Access, but they require quite a bit more effort to configure, 
convert, and program.  Are you looking for something to interact with 
directly (i.e. creating tables, forms, and reports) or something to act 
as a backend to a pre-built application?

Then there's the BASE component of OO.org 2.0, which I haven't played 
with (but *really* should) and it sounds more targeted to the level of 
user that would be inclined toward Access.
