Among the 3 of them, the MS Access and SQL are I think the best for DB software used by the programming languages like Visual Basic.  I don't know about Oracle cause I never tried it before.

MySQL, I believe. It's been trusted by so many companies already, and has had quite a track record.

Even the UN trusts MySQL. Here's the latest!

If you look on the exploitation side i think ms access is the one that has the least exploits or vulnrabilities.

MS Access will really have a problem when it has very big large data instored already. When I made my thesis, which is library system, I have used VB and then MS Access for its database. I don't know if my computer is the cause but when thousands of books are already in the database, the searching became very long.

MySQL is I think the most common database.

Oracle I think is the most reliable that's why you have to pay for it. Many big companies use Oracle and that's the proof of its reliability.
