>>Hey, John - Appreciate the info. Just trying to picture how any end users might use such a seemingly-odd product. It would have to be extremely seamless and simple for the average user to even think about using it, I'd guess (it's taken folks here years to get Excel down). That's what really interests me, how can MS make SQL Server usable to regular folks - I guess they could make it work like (drumbeat...) MS Access! But we've already got Access :) I'm still missing something, I think...

Thanks, I'll have to check it out once we get our downloading speed back...does it look like something an end-user would find usable?
