Chad,
IMHO, MS Access will handle your 10,000 records without any database
problems. Access can actually handle much bigger databases than that.
Having said that, if your site has a high-level of traffic, you'll likely
experience stability problems with ColdFusion as a result of using Access.
These are mostly to do with the ODBC drivers and because of the fact that MS
Access isn't a client/server database. Ben Forta recently wrote an article
called "Access Denied" You should have a look at it:

There is even an article in Allaire's knowledgebase as to why you shouldn't
use Access.
HTH,
Eron

Subject: MS Access V.S. SQL
How many records can MS Access handle safely? Im looking at a project that
may be around 10,000 Records.
Are there other specific database needs that demand making the leap to a
SQL server?
Thanks
Chad
