Which version of Access are you using? Anything prior to Access 2002 (the
Office XP version) is totally unaware of Ink. With the Office XP versions,
you need the Tablet Pack add-on:

and even with that, it is just patchwork trying to get Ink to Access.

The Office 2003 versions are natively Ink-aware, however, even that has been
enhanced by the recent release of the Office 2003 Tablet PC Update:

Access still has not been brought along as much as the other programs in the
suite.

You might take a look at PenOffice from the folks at PhatWare:
