As a PHP/MySQL programmer I use the web browser as my front end. Form Components are created using HTML and Field Validation is acheived using Javascript. PHP pulls everything together. For Reports the web browser with a white background is fine. For standard letters where you need to control the header and footer content I use ScriptX or output a PDF document. Any client databases I find written in MS Access I normally convert totally so that MS Access is not used.
