[dba-SQLServer]SQL Server Dev Without SQL Server?

That's correct, but he is a developer, and I'd think it would be a
problem in design if a db has to be over 4GB to be delivered to the
client (unless A LOT of data needs to be loaded, in which case that last
piece can be done on the client's site).

I thought that MSDE had two very important restrictions - max db size of
4gb and concurrent user throttling after 5 "users"?  Or is this a
different animal we are talking about.

90% of what you do using MSDE will work on any edition of sql server. In
fact, if you have multiple instances of MSDE all 100% will work (except
for clustering capabilities).

Does the SQl Server desktop engine exactly duplicate the functionality
of full-blown SQL Server? I want to develop apps for SQL Server
backends, but will not have SQL Server available during development. I
need to be able to design databases and write code, then be able to
re-create or migrate the databases to SQL Server and point my apps at
the actual database for production. Is this a feasible approach, or do I
need to find a way to get the full-blown SQL Server package to work
with?

Thanks for any advice/pointers/information.
