I have an Access database I built in Access 2003 with several queries, forms and a dashboard. I want to make it available to a few select users from a non-profit website built in Joomla so that they can maintain the data (membership list). I have Access 2010 and understand that there are options that include SharePoint and Office 365 to accomplish this, but at a cost. Is there a way to accomplish this without a serious commitment to coding or costs?

You will have to implement Joomla components that know how to utilize the Access Database in order for it provide web pages that allow the user to interact with the database through a browser.
It would be best to contact a developer who is familiar with creating Joomla components to save time and money in implementation.
If you aren't restricted to Joomla, then it opens your door to a lot of other ways to provide people the ability to modify your Access database through the web.
You could write the website in any web language so long as the web technology has a means to connect to the Access database.
