EF Codd defined 12 rules (a version of the rules can be seen at
http://www.itworld.com/nl/db_mgr/05072001/ ) which described a RDBMS. To
date there is no database system which fully meets all 12 rules, so on that
basis Access is not an RDBMS (but then neither is any other database
system).
If you look at the rules and see how they apply to Access you will see that
by any everyday definition of an RDBMS Access fits the model.
Essentially you are misinformed.

I heard that MS Access is not at all a RDBMS.But why?
Only the security feature in Access is low.We can't create multiple
logins or... Other than that everything is available.So why not a RDBMS.Please explain
me. Regards
