Hi Kevin
If they want to proceed with the Internet Connector, search here on
Internet Connector (they have stock)
Harris Technology
http://www.ht.com.au/Scripts/xworks.exe?SEARCH
Your colleague should make sure they are familiar with the implications
of this purchase - I am not a licensing expert but there may be a more
efficient way to do this (eg bundled SQL licensing included with Windows
2000 Server?) Their reseller should be able to advise.
Hope this helps,
Andrew

Is this MS's policy Andrew. Seems a bit sad!

Subject: WOT: SQL Server Licensing Woes
As many others have done, I'm turning to the group in the hopes that
someone
out there has an idea I haven't thought of. I apologize for the OT
post.
I'm deploying a new website for a client and we're planning on running
MS
SQL Server 7 as the back end. Since SQL Server 2000 has come out, no
one is
selling 7.0 any more (or, they're selling their final inventory).
I've located a copy of the software, but I'm trying to be legal and
order
the Internet Connector licenses. Unfortunately, I can only locate one.
I've called MS, and they won't sell them anymore (so, if you've got a
copy
of SQL Server 7 that you now want to connect to the Internet, you have
to
order SQL Server 2000 all over again - nice, eh?).
Does anyone have any ideas on where I might locate a copy of the
Internet
Connector license? Any good resources for software online or offline?
Especially those that sell "last year's version"?
Thanks,
Evan
