Hi Randall,The Organization that I work for is currently using a MSSQL database to store Document Management data, We are In the process of Upgrading to some new servers and have found that to upgrade the Licensing on MSSQL will cost from $6000 to $10000, We have been looking at the alternatives as a result, possibly moving to a Mysql or Postgresql backend when I remembered hearing about SAP, Our vendor currently supports only MSSQL or Oracle, What kind of steps would be needed to Use SAP instead, would there be problems with data types, or SQL syntax.... the application would be accessing it through ODBC and Requires the Database to be ADO Compliant, Any Thoughts??Last year, we supported two MS SQL server -> SAP DB migration projects. One project was an internal evaluation how easy a particular product can be tweaked to use SAP DB instead of MSSQL. The communication layer was here ODBC and we made good progress.The second project was external by a German government department (Bundeskartellamt). Their clients were implemented using VB/ODBC or ADO, respectivly, and the main business logic was done in db procedures.
