Hi Jeff, They're using Oracle, why would they want SQL in production? ;-) Seriously, MSDE is made to order in this scenario. Only one SQL client connection is required so provided the data expiry is set so the database doesn't get too huge it'll run fine. Get MSDEAdmin ($35) to manage it and it'd be perfect. Then add Jason Conger's web interface for RM. regards, Rick Ulrich Mack Volante Systems ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Jeff Pitsch Sent: Sat 16/09/2006 6:40 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: PS 4.0 and summary database I have to ask, you can afford to buy PS Enterprise but you don't have a SQL Server?
