and that's exactly where we're heading....but the VC has to come in first ;-) with MySQL...my feeling is that you need to "add" all sorts of things that come standard in MS SQL and Oracle...hell...even Access If I had a huge data repository that was never changed...I'd use MySQL for the speed...but that ain't what I'm up to...I need Stored Procs...ref integrity among other useful tidbits Damn...and I even said to leave this debate alone ;-) Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
