FS alarm bells are going off in my head. I'll spare you the details of my background with versioned databases, but suffice it to say that IMHO the overhead will kill you. I'd recommend as some "light reading" http://www.microsoft.com/LEARNING_TOOLS/books/sampchap/5800.asp . If you read their description of "blue" nodes you can immediately visualize the indexing that such an arrangement permits. Even this IMHO will result in a database only suitable for relatively coarse grained access. Here, your analogy w/CVS is right on the mark. - Sam Ruby --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
