Ermm, no. Not even close. Access is a tool for building simple GUI database applications that also happens to contain an embedded database for said applications. This is what I meant in my GIMP comment; the Linux community doesn't understand what the users of any of this stuff are trying to do. So they just make something that looks a bit like it, and wonder why no-one seems interested in switching.
Not so long ago, free software barely had browsers that were acceptable to the mainstream. Now it does. It'll get to Access, it just takes time. Free Software still has a lot of ground to make up, but it is gaining ground on proprietary software.
You might be right, but claiming that SQLite (a fine piece of software that I often use) is a substitute for Access in the here and now is unreasonable.
