Hello,
you didn't give us a timeframe or any other details - generally in Austria you would need to know where the person lived in order to pinpoint the parish they belonged to. Then they can look up any records in the churchbooks there.
Fortunately there's also the Styrian Diocesan archives where most of the records are stored in duplicate. Send them an email at archiv@graz-seckau.at.
victoria1akp btw was close, but not exactly ... Graz is the capital of Styria, while Burgenland is a differetn province (state, Bundesland), their capital is Eisenstadt.
And ... sorry, no online database for this information.
Regards
Tilman
