Hi Ling,

If you are satisfied with your present Access database and are upgrading in order to gain capacity and speed this is a no brainer -- stay with Microsoft, go with SQL*Server.

I say this because if your needs have satisfied by Access it is unlikely that you will grow to the point where you need Oracle's scalability and stability. And, of course, if you do eventually outgrow SQL*Server your upgrade to Oracle will be relatively painless.

regards

Jerry Gitomer
