Hi Ken Yes, it is an interesting offer. Indeed as it includes production licenses for Windows and SQL Server. Could you shed some light please on how to understand and handle 'the big unspoken critical element' in their configuration utility? Is this a trap of some kind? /gustav >>> kismert at gmail.com 12-11-2009 20:01 >>> Gustav Brock: > Have you heard of Microsoft® WebsiteSpark*? > ... > http://www.microsoft.com/web/websitespark/Support.aspx?tab=ProgramDetails > > So if you consider "something else" than Access, this might help you. > > That is very interesting. I must say, I am impressed with IIS7/Windows Web Server. It is stable, modular, and fairly easy to configure, once you understand 'the big unspoken critical element' in their configuration utility. Further, Microsoft has gone a long way in integrating PHP with IIS7. They have fixed a multitude of compatibility issues that used to exist in IIS6 versions of PHP. Visual Studio even includes a PHP plugin with syntax highlighting. This has to be a more-promising development path than Access' still tenuous development story. -Ken
