There is no reason why MS Access is not perfectly suitable for a project
such as this.

Even far more demanding situations are regularly using MS Access in
web-related applications. Not that it is the biggest and best by any means,
nor is it my first choice in a database. But what you describe has no need
of anything that MS Access can't do.

As I mentioned in private email, your solution will not be a dynamic web
page but rather an application which can report off the database to create
static web pages after they are updated.

I'm all for dynamism and web pages built on the fly but there needs to be
some volatility to warrant the overhead.
