I was trying them out (the free versions) to see which could do the job without incurring any cost on our customers.

Too bad the Express Version doesn't have DTS or Import/Export. It would be a winner in our situation. Kind of hard to believe Microsoft would not provide a way to GET your data into the Database..... or OUT of it, either!!

Thanks
