Marty, <<One option, you might want to look at, are some of the more popular legal case management solutions. These are in the $200-300 range. The enterprise editions store info in SQL Server.>> Definitely a thought.. This will be for a medicals claims system. <<You should have a basic series file numbering system to start with based on some sort of taxonomy.>> Got that well in hand already. Main worry is all these external files. The end users are non-computer literate folks, so I need everything to be as automatic as possible.
