Anthony;

My experience with SQL is that it is very slowwwww.  I started out my
project using Interbase SQL Server.  It was slow enough that we
decided to spend an extra month to redo using DBF's instead.  I have
read a number of posts and can attest to the performance hit you take
when using an SQL server.  I guess you have to decide if the benefits
of SQL are worth it.
