You're right, you can connect directly to a text (csv) database too. Lucas

Access has perfectly good CSV import built in. I don't know what osm2csv does. It may be better to adapt osm2pgsql or osmosis to talk to access instead of postgres or mysql. I would expect that if you wanted to import the whole planet into Access, it would struggle, which is why linking to tables stored in MySQL or Postgres, as others have suggested, would probably be a better idea. What are you hoping to achieve?
