Looking for a simple database utility

Hi.

I am looking for a simple database utility that does the following.

1. It would be nice if it were free.
2. I want it to have a GUI like MS Access where you can see the tables and input the data.
3. It would be nice if it had an option to store the database as multiple files - 1 file per table - as opposed to 1 file for the whole database. (It shouldn't be stored on a server, just files in a local directory.)
__________________________

If it can do the following, it would be a bonus:

Something that converts that database into source C or C++ files for firmware, and have a framework for accessing that data.

Thanks.

couple of options
open office meets most of those requirememnts. however its not as sophisticated as Access

failing that you could write the user interface in some other language and store the data in some other db format (that format could be JET (an access MDB that is licence/royalty free), sql lite or a server db such as MySQL)
