>I was involved with a MySQL project, but it was a real dissapointment. Not only was it hard to get through all kinds of different gotchas with MySQL, I was surprised that there are different backend implementations with different aspects to take care of. I needed some tools to manage the MySQL database on a website but I found no way to profile the database of what VFP was sending to MySQL as I has some serious problems in getting a realiable behaviour (updates randomly failing without knowing what the hell was going on). Spend tenths of hours to get help on the issue, but only wasted my time. So for me, give me MSSQL over MySQL any day of the week.
