How about converting to SQLite and using LibreOffice Base as a frontend?
That gets you away from the limitations of Microsoft Access.
That would mean throwing away umpteen databases and reports, developed
over the span of decades. I don't think that's practicable.
As I said, I'd like to try Access on Linux using WINE or proton.
Some hints here for WINE, in case you haven't already seen:
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=12Seems you might need to use the "Winetricks" system to separately
install the database engine for the database system that you're
using with Access.
