    Re: SQL Server database Implementation . . .

    If it would have been in a multi-user environment then I would have suggested alternatives to Access but if it is a single-user application then Access should be fine in most cases, one scenario that I would advise against using it (in a single user case) is when the database should exceed the limit of its 2GB size.

    MS Access was fine when we had no alternatives - we now have free express editions of MS SQL, Oracle and of course MySql that make MS Access look "crippled".
    Would you want your app to be crippled? I'm sure your answer is "no".

    We have our own beliefs and opinions on things. I'd say Access is still fine if it fits the requirement, and the application that utilizes it shouldn't be crippled if it is designed correctly. Cheers everyone!
