MSDE would probably do the job for the forseeable future, and that's for
free (M$ & 'free' ...? can't quite believe it...) with the option of a
$4,600 upgrade if MSDE runs into problems. This probably wouldn't have
been too difficult if it wasn't for the fact that in my ignorance I've
already sung the praises of MySQL and pursuaded the big cheeses they can
get the job done for 500 Euros under MySQL commercial licence.
I have now got some info on workarounds for my problems with MySQL but
when people tell you "in that condition -sometimes- this happens" it all
seems a bit flaky - Somehow I feel I am shortly going to have to do some
super-diplomatic back-paddling....
