I need to quickly put together a program which will work with MS SQL
Server 2000. The only problem is, SQL Server is not currently running
here and I don't currently possess a copy of it.

If I use ADO (TADOConnection etc) and create the relevant tables in MS
Access, and develop and test the application, would it only be a matter
of changing the connection string to get the app to work with SQL
Server?

Are there any risks in proceeding on this basis? 

I'm not familiar with the cut down version of SQL Server which is
supplied with MS Office 2000 Pro. Can I cerate and populate tables
using this version?

Thanks in advance for any advice or information!
