Hello,
I'v been developping VB apps for 3.5 years and using Access DB (MDB) as a back end. I need to change DBs because my clients companies are growing and I'm sure they would be better off with a database able to handle thousands or millions of records.
- How capable is the Access 7.0 database, how many records can in hold and whats its byte capacity ?
- Should I switch to the new ORACLE 8 DB or Microsoft's SQL Server 7.0 DB.
- Can I shipp the ORACLE DB like the MDB or is it like SQL Server where I would need to work on the server machine ?
I like MDB because of it's simplicity but I need to move on to a more enterprise oriented DB.
Thanx in advance for your advice
