    if you want to build the whole system in access as a standalone proj you just need to learn a little vba, if you have any questions about using vba in access please dont hesitate to ask.

    if you plan to put something online your best going with mysql as mentioned above and using a ready made available script

    dont listen to the above, nonsense lol

    you dont need scripts, or code or anything like it.

    1) make a table, call it vote results. rename first fields, name, Class, Vote option, etc add more if needed.
    2) add another table, 1 field, called Vote question. populate it with the vote questions.

    2) make a form, form wizzard, based upon the table you saved. it will auto include those fields.

    3) convert a text box to a combo, data source is the vote question table.

    this gives you something to play around with. and let you collect data.

    after this you will want to make a report grouping on vote question so you can get some stats etc.

    If you use HTML as the interface, you can also use javascript to write or read the data in access.
