Default Creating a front end application to sql data set

I want to start learning how to access an sql data base (using excel as the
front end, if that is correct terminology. Where is a good place to start.
I have a little experience with VBA, and I would like to start learning the
sql language.

MS Access Queries can be switched to SQL View: this will allow you to type
and execute SQL statements. It might be a good place to start.

If your database is SQL Server, you can use Query Analyser; for Oracle use
SQL*PLUS. These are already written SQL front ends.

It is fairly easy to write your own SQL front end: however, you said that
you do not know VBA and that makes it difficult.
