Yep. Piece of cake.
Design your database in Access, then choose Tools:Database
Utilities:Upsizing Wizard. Choose create new database, then it will
ask you a couple questions as you go, the server to connect to, the
login and name of the database, whether you want to use Triggers or
DRI, and you're done. I choose Triggers and let Access decide whether
to add a timestamp.
Once to database is done, you can change table properties through the
.adp file that's created by using design mode just like with a .mdb
file. Also, you can right click on a table to show the triggers and
edit them if any end up not being what you expect. They usually end
up being right on the money.
