Thanks, Bud, that looks like a very fruitful avenue to explore. I'll go looking for an eval version of SQL2000.

So I have to continue to work with both. If you have a fast enough connection, you can use 2000 Enterprise Manager to Manage the database on the SQL 7 machine with no problem. >I don't own SQL2000 - my hosting company does. I own SQL7.

You used to be able to download the SQL 7 evaluation which was good for 90 days. Once it expired, Enterprise Manager still worked. I'd imagine you can probably do the same thing with 2000. I don't know how "legal" that is, but it's just an Interface, not the actual SQL Server and all the licenses I've seen deal with Client Accesses. -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
