You have to install MSDE before you install WebBoard. In typical O'Reilly 
fashion, they don't have "Install MSDE" as the first item in the install 
menu. I don't remember off-hand where it is in the menu order, but just 
choose the Install MSDE option before you install anything else and you 
should be OK.

MSDE and SQL Server are two different animals. You can use either with 
Webboard, but I don't believe you can "create" an MSDE database with SQL7. 
Best to let the Webboard installation create the MSDE database for you, 
then upsize to SQL Server afterwards.

Best regards, Ron
