Anybody who tries to make blanket statements about "the best solution does _______ " is generally biased and probably being closed-minded. The best solution for YOU is the one which best meets your needs. It's as simple as that. If you're dealing with a lot of XML, then maybe it's an XML-based database. But if someone thinks that XML databases are just "better" really has their head buried in the sand. My 2 cents. Jeremy -- Jeremy D.
