I have a complicated database that has many cross linkages in it.  It is 
currently in Access and is linked to MapInfo TABs.  I am considering moving the 
TABs and the attribute database into Spatialware for SQL Server to help 
maintain data integrity.  
 
My question is how to handle the separate database that has the attributes?  I 
could make one instance of SQL Server for the database, and load the TABs via 
easyloader into a separate instance of SQL Server.  BUT at that point I will 
have a spatial database and a separate attribute database.  Has anyone ever 
tried linking the two databases together?  Note that the attribute database is 
too complex to turn into a flat table of attributes.  Any hints or suggestions 
are greatly appreciated.
