Careful saying Msaccess is not accessible I can use Access 2003 fine but
2007 has a lot of accessibility now with the latest jaws.  I don't know
about the other screen readers but you can support Access 2007 now with
screen readers.

It depends on what you want to do with it.

MS Access is not only a database. It offers the possibility of creating an
entire program, not only the database. You can create forms with it, macros
and VBA code.

But MS Access is not portable and not so fast as MySQL, and from the
perspective of the blind, MySQL is very accessible, while MS Access is not. 
It can be used, but not all its parts are easy to use.

Is it okay to use MS Access 2007 instead of MySQL database for programming 
aspects?

Well and warmest regards.
