Yes, that's very true. My brain always seems to come from the point of view of things that I work on. However, if 80% of your queries are simple selects and some joins, then even switching from MSSQL to Oracle wouldn't be bad.

Obviously a switch from Oracle to MS SQL Server will have some re-writes involved (PL-SQL to T-SQL), but going from Access to MS SQL Server you should just be able to point at the new DB and fire it up. As I said...it does depend on what DB features you are using....so if you have a complex DB wuith loads of SPs etc...the yes...it could be tough....if it's a simple DB then the swicth could be very painless ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:202288 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
