For a single user, SQL config is a mess; it only becomes better than the
flat-file approach when one has (at least) several full-time users and
a db administrator. Most small businesses will have only one part-time
accountant; you'd need to build a pretty big, sopphisticated heavily used
system before the effort of sql admin is worth the effort.
