You could either go with Access, Delphi, or Kylix. Good thing about Kylix is that it is cross-platform. I've done some messing around with Delphi. It's easy to put together a decent prototype without touching a line of code. To put in all the bells and whistles that the end-user invariably wants, you will have to do some coding. Kylix is much the same way. You can take a look at the free version of Kylix and decide if it is something you want. One other choice is to use HTML and PHP to access the database with a browser. I'm sure there are other choices as well.
