Seriously, the best way to check this out is go look at a MS web site that has a document entitled "Choosing the Appropriate Database Development Tool." There are feature checklists there and other great reading to help you see the differences. Go to URL http://www.microsoft.com/msdn/library/choosing.htm . Good luck!! ==Carl
