It depends on which windowing toolkit you're planning to use. If you use
PyGTK, you'd want a TreeView widget to display the list. Fill a
ListStore instance with your data and give that to the TreeView. You can
implement filtering and sorting on top of that using TreeModelFilter and
TreeModelSort.

LibreOffice and OpenOffice have database management components (I
haven't used them, I assume they're somewhat similar to MS Access) - and
they can be scripted using Python. Depending on what you're doing, and
what you're planning to do in the future (re learning investment), that
might be worth looking into.
