Well, it is not Access on steroids, for starters it is a client-server database which Access is not. It's actually a good DBMS< very fast, and quite configurable (if you can figure out how to do it). But yes, it is missing some very important features, stored procedures being the most important.

I've tried using MyPHPAdmin to administer MySQL before and all I can say is it sucked eggs...security was confusing as all hell. The MySQL.com website says that upcoming features for version 5 include: -views -stored procedures -triggers -sub-queries Now if it's missing all that then what is it....Access on steroids?? ;-) Opinions please TIA Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
