This was drawn to my attention today (extract below) and I traditionally use Access via an ODBC connection for small apps. The full article can be found at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q222135
******* When running Microsoft Jet in an IIS environment, it is recommended that you use the native Jet OLE DB Provider in place of the Microsoft Access ODBC driver. The Microsoft Access ODBC driver (Jet ODBC driver) can have stability issues due to the version of Visual Basic for Applications that is invoked because the version is not thread safe. As a result, when multiple concurrent users make requests of a Microsoft Access database, unpredictable results may occur. The native Jet OLE DB Provider includes fixes and enhancements for stability, performance, and thread pooling (including calling a thread-safe version of Visual Basic for Applications). ******** What's the view in the CF Community - should I switch strategies here - is this a problem using CF? ********** Kevin Parker Web Services Manager WorkCover Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.workcover.com p: 08 82332548 f: 08 82332000 m: 0418 806 166 ********** ************************************************************************ This e-mail is intended for the use of the addressee only.
