Get the admin guy to create and administer the database using ADO.
That way you don't need a single MS Access licence!

Seriously, administering a database is a lot easier with a dedicated
database administation tool. Sure, you could probably build one in
Excel/VBA, but I'm damn sure it would cost a lot more than buying a single
Access seat.
