Hello Members,

I run an ecommerce and currently using ASP with an Access Database.  I am looking to upgrade to another database like MSSQL or MySQL.  I would like to know which system is best PHP or ASP?  How friendly is the system to transfer from one programmer to the next?  What are the advantages and disadvantages to either one?  Which one will provide the quickest download time etc.?  What is your overall experience with PHP and/or ASP? 

Thanks

MySQL is a good database, but it doesn't really compare to MS SQL Server.

MySQL is not yet a full RDBMS, which MS SQL Server is. This is a major issue for data integrity. With MS SQL Server you are guaranteed data integrity if you design properly. i.e. You can't relate tables in MySQL.

This isn't too important for a lot of applications though.

Stored procs are also a nice thing to have especially when you need to do some heavier lifting.

since you are upgrading, why converting to PHP or even ASP.NET, just upgrade from MSAccess to MSSql, i think a few lines of code to be changed, and it is done.
