Rambling thoughts... I have used and loved Access and Excel for year and years, but I think I have a new love now. Gotta say how totally impressed I am with SQL Server - Even the Free Express version is bloody brilliant. I use the enterprise version at work, but need to demo some stuff on my PC as a stand alone operation. So I installed SQL Server Express 2008, built an entire database from SQL Server 2000 scripts - tables, views, sproc, functions, the lot really in only a couple of minutes, and then imported all the data via DTS. took less than half a day from nothing to having something function perfectly well into an Access FE. the more I use SQL Server the more I am totally impressed, and the less and less I use Access and Excel for anything but front ends linked into SQL views and sprocs. ra ra ra... Just some friday afternoon musings from Oz.... regards Darryl. This email and any attachments may contain privileged and confidential information and are intended for the named addressee only.
