>>You might also try VistaDB. It is not anything to learn it as it works much the same as SQL does. And it is a free database file that you can just copy with your install like VFP or Access would be. There is a seperate DataManager liken to SSMS that you can use to open it and manage it if someone wants. Then there is a bonus; it has encryption so it requires a password. Great option for times like that. Of course for me I wouldn't touch access.

Hi Cetin,

No, I meant VistaDB has a free table as in not attached and easily copied or distributed. VistaDB is written specifically to be compatible with SQL and for Dot net. I am really wondering why it isn't being used more for this type of project. It isn't free in cost but with unlimited distribution the cost is hardly a big factor. It also supports the Entity Framework and L2S or L2E with version 4. I am using it with several web applications as well as windows applications where I need to install the data along with my application. SQL is my preference otherwise.
