    Question

    Hi!

    I would like to make a server with a MS Access database. Which one is better MS SQL Server 7.0 or Oracel 8i? I have heard that there are some problems with Oracle 8i and MS Access databases. If so, does anybody know which problems?

    Thanks for the information,

    Thomas

    Well, if you're using either, then it won't be an Access database!

    Oracle is more reliable than MSSS, but MSSS is faster than Oracle. Alternatively, you can use mySQL, which is free (http://www.mysql.com).

    You could also download from the Microsoft website a SQL7 dataengine it's kind of like a desktop SQL server.

    It is a complete SQL 7.0 without the Enterprise Manger.

    Best
