You guys should just get a MSDN subscription. If you do a little shopping around, a universal subscription can be gotten for $800 - $900. And yes, it's legit and not an academic subscription. By getting that and a Action Pack subscription, I have access to just about everything that Microsoft makes. The only thing excluded is some of the higher end Enterprise stuff, which I don't get into. Jim Dettman President, Online Computer Services of WNY, Inc.
