[dba-Tech] Sharepoint - What does it cost?

How could I go about finding a local dealer?  I thought this could be
purchased 'off the shelf', but no?

Hi Dan

Oh, please check at your local dealer before advising your client.

John & Gustav,

A flat file would be OK for what I'm thinking of, but this would definitely
be external, and with this company 'quite expensive' probably means 'quite
unlikely'.

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Dan

As far as I know, the free license with Windows 2003 is for internal use
only, and the external is quite expensive.

And Sharepoint database files ... aren't they flat files only? Not very
sexy, just educated Excel files ... brings back memories of RapidFile.

I have a potential customer who might benefit from using Sharepoint.  They
are only about 100 people, but have sales and field reps in several places
in the world.  What does Sharepoint cost?  

I've read before that a list in Sharepoint can be connected to an Access
database.  If my customer does use Sharepoint, then I believe I can give him
some database functionality collaborating with widely dispersed people.  Has
anyone used Sharepoint with Access?

Thanks!

Dan
