You can't get it free. Go to your local computer retailer and buy it. Will cost you about �90 for access 2000

PC world no longer stock Access 2000 you will have to shop around or get Access 2003.

"is it part of the works suite? "

No it is part of Office (as well as being available on it's own as mentioned). But some of the more basic versions of Office don't have it included so make sure you confirm it has it one before buying.

You will be able to get a copy from ebay if you don't mind getting pirate goods.

This any use?

Otherwise, download Open Office 2 and see if its database is of any use.
