Does anyone know how MSDE gets installed? What it is a part of? I want to use MSDE as the database engine for .net development for some lightweight demo apps and games. I haven't a clue where it comes from (other than the Access disks). Is it just there for .net? If not is it available for a download (for free?)? If so, how do I get it installed on a remote computer? John W.

Hi John, In my case, even with those restrictions it will be fine as long as I can easily get everything setup on SQL Server when the time comes. For development I'll just have test data, and while I'll probably have a good amount to check performance issues I can't see it going over 4gig. For dev, I'll be the only user, so that isn't an issue either. But those are important considerations to keep in mind. Thanks.
