Don't pick your application based upon your data base technology. Pick the best application and then get the data base technology. Candypress is the best asp shopping cart but it's mssql. -------------

I can see why he wants MySQL. We have a dedicated web server, but no MS SQL Server, so we have to lease MS SQL space on a shared MS SQL server. We also have PHP and MySQL installed on the Windows dedicated server, making it truely flexible. By the MS SQL license is way too much money for what we need, and the free MS SQL 2005 Express would probably work just fine except there is no way to import our existing website databases into it (that we know of). So all new websites that I am developing will be either ASP/MySQL or PHP/MySQL. I might consider ASP/MS SQL 2005 Express, but I am worried about importing/exporting and making backups and restoring them. ------------- http://www.wistex.com" rel="nofollow - WisTex Solutions http://www.caribbeanchoice.com/forums" rel="nofollow - CaribbeanChoice Forums |

Wasn't there originally some license issue about using the free Express version on a web server or did that get resolved?

SQLExpress is free. This website/forum even uses it without any problems. Also you can "restore" a database, or "attach" a exisiting database without any problems. I use it locally for developement. ------------- http://www.iportalx.net" rel="nofollow">

I did not know until earlier today (via another post on this forum) that you could "restore" a MS SQL 2000 database to MS SQL 2005 Express. I'm going to test that this weekend, and if that is the case, we will be moving to SQL 2005 Express on localhost instead of use a shared SQL 2000 server on another machine.
