Default Best mySQL front-end for an Access/VB person?

What front-end would be good for a person with a VB/VBA background to
use with mySQL? I'm used to creating screens and reports in Access and
writing code in VB/VBA. I know very little C.

I want to consider alternatives to using Access as a front end due to
complications with and the size of distributing a runtime version.

Thanks,
Brooks

Look at MyODBC at the MySQL site. It will enable you to access MySQL
from both access and VB.

Best regards

No, you missed the point. I don't want to connect to mySQL.
