[AccessD] AXP mde fe / be to fe / MSDE

On reflection, I concur with Martin. The only problem is that you need some
sort of client to get at the sprocs and views and UDFs. I recall reading
here that there is a way to achieve this, though. Download and install the
eval version of SQL 2000, but install only the client tools (not the back
end). Then you'll have Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer etc. available
without having to spring the big bucks for SQL 2000.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad to hear that someone else is working with
an mde fe and msde be. I like Authur's approach from a technical viewpoint.
Unfortunately, I'm reaching the limit of the time estimate I gave to my
client for this project. 

I need to continue making progress without trying to cram the ADP learning
curve into a two week period on top of the SQL learning curve. I also think
getting to SQL in this rather clunky way would position me well to take on
the web front end project if they go that way.

Any more words of wisdom for me?

Thanks,

Eric
