Then what will be easier and shortest way for me. Please suggest me. Remember I want to make standalone application. may be vb & access. Is there any other option better than vb with access. if not then reffer me better reference for vb & access programming tutorial. thank u all

Don't use Access. It is meant to be a single-user system. It does NOT work well as a multi-user system. MySQL, SQL Server, Oracle, and many other databases would be a much better choice.

First, welcome to CodeCall ...:)
I don't know much about database programming. I have tried SAP 2000 (certainly, you are sure familiar with this program). I think it store its database with MS Access, but i don't know what programming language it used.

hi thank u both koding88 &wingedpanther
First If i want an stand alone program then what will be better. I can make program with visual basic using access. But I dont know how to make application with other database as mysql, sql, oracle etc. So for standalone program what will be better
I didn't use sap. where can I get the trial of sap.
thank u again.

SAP is an enterprise level programming environment of its own. It stores data in a database, but it is not a database.
You can use SQLite for a standalone, single-user, database. Most of them are as easy, or easier, to set up as Access. A little research should help you out, there.

I think, SAP that he means is Structural Analysis Program for civil engineer, not SAP for enterprise environment. We can download demo version of SAP 2000 at link below. We have to complete the form that displayed after we click Request Download.
Or, you maybe can use SAP 2000 v7.40 student version. I don't know link for this version on their official website. Please just googling.
