Default migrate an application from Access to MySql

Because of cost and other reasons I would like to redevelop an
application in MySql that I started in Access. I like the form(screen)
and report builder support in Access and also the variety of events that
can be triggered from a form. I have not found any similar front end
development support for MySql.
My current project is an 'all local machine' type of application with no
need of the WEB.
References and suggestions would be appreciated.
Hugh

I know this is a late response...

MySQL is just a database engine. Access is a set of pretty good Window tools
wrapped around a very lightweight (and not in the good way) database engine.

MySQL the database engine is designed to run on everything from Windows and Macs
to Mainframes. You use Access WITH mySQL, instead of mySQL replacing Access.

Google for things like "RAD" or "rapid application developement tools". Most
will have ability to work with mySQL databases.
