Al, Is it that you hate "SQL Servers" per se, or do you just hate M$ SQLServer?
As I said in the past post, RB comes with SQLight and the database is just completely hidden from view. You can create temp tables etc on the fly but using standard SQL. It is certainly blindingly fast so that won't be a problem. If you want to look at alternative options as opposed to Alpha then take a look at Filemaker Pro. That is a product along the lines of Alpha but totally programmable with OOP etc and you can get the server based product for larger applications. Also you can run it web based with very minimal application coding change. I'll drop you a personal email with some possibilities...

I'm still heading for C# as I have VS 2010. But I hate sql server. I would like VFP type data as in free tables rather than security screwed up ones. What is the choice of a fast table based system. Allen -----Original Message----- Alan, I have used Alpha 5 quite a lot for a colleague who bought it and floundered but didn't want to give it up.
