Office for Mac and Access: Solution Needed

[jkaz]

I'm trying to switch an office to Mac.

They use word, excel and access.

From what i've read, office for Mac includes word and excel, but not access.

I don't know much about access, but it seems like it works with excel at the same time. And i'm aware of the virtual pc route. But if they need to integrate, will it go between virt pc and excel for Mac?

THANKS!
