The GUI and forms is what made Access, though. Back in the day I actually made a system with Access that connected to a SQL Server database on the backend rather than Access's file-based engine.
It's a real shame Access died, now there's no path from a spreadsheet to something more sensible.

Although it has certainly died in terms of mindshare, it's officially still supported for PC (not Mac): https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/access https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/access I actually have it installed right now, because it comes with Microsoft 365 Family, which I have on the Windows PC on which I'm typing this comment. I haven't used the modern version of it, though.
