I am thinking about learning about databases and really have to start from scratch. Is it worth starting with Access and then moving into other database systems?

No, not at all. Pick up Head First SQL to learn basic SQL and database structure.When you go the extra mile, there's no traffic. -

This is the book: Head First SQL: Your Brain on SQL -- A Learner's Guide: Lynn Beighley: 9780596526849: Amazon.com: Books
Outstanding book for a beginner to learn about tables, normalization and basic SQL. You will need other books to learn about indexes, views, functions, stored procedures, jobs, triggers, ect.When you go the extra mile, there's no traffic. -
