Matt,
How exactly have you configured these date/time fields? The fields I
refer to were created via a cfquery statement, as in
CREATE TABLE myfile (
ID COUNTER not NULL PRIMARY KEY,
PostDate datetime NULL ,
ModDate datetime NULL ,
);

Access will explode on contact with ANY date field when you try to use
cfqueryparam on it. None of the cfsqltypes work so you have to write
your code with this in mind and protect yourself in other

My $.02 I am a SQL Server & Oracle user/developer. I have dabbled
with MySQL and have found it to be adequate for those sites I have
used to build with it, albeit without SP support (which MySQL 5.0
adds).
Given that there is a free RDBMS available (MySQL), I would drop any
idea of supporting Ac

Personally I don't use maxlengths at the db level
At the absolute opposite end of the scale, have you considered Oracle

Stan,
My knee-jerk reaction is to say 'No'. By supporting Access, you could be
propogating the myth that Access is a sufficient databse to use for web
applications. In my opinion, Access would never be the DB of choice, other
than to track my DVD collection...but I would never look at it anyway
Drop it imho.
PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQL Server should be more than enough for a forum
app.
