When you look back at dBase III or IV, the text user interface which allowed to interact with the data was very simple, and efficient. Designing forms (I didn't do much of these, and I can't remember well) was quite straightforward, and was not at all what I would call an "application development". The latter would be made by using clipper, most often.
MS Access is all about forms, reports, and data, with visualbasic macros for data manipulation.
