Hey guys, thanks for all the support, I appreciate it.

I guess, I could release it for download now, but it will be missing a lot of the features that I wanted to add to it before release. There isn't an admin section, so you'd have to mess with the databases by hand. Speaking of the databases. It only runs with MySQL at the moment. Of course, making it compatible with MS SQL shouldn't be too much trouble.

I don't see an Oracle version any time soon, unless some one out there knows Oracle. And it is software/contributeware, so things can be added as we move along.

Let me finish a few things and I'll keep you guys posted on its release. Wink

Oi! I thought SQL is SQL regardless of type, MS SQL, MYSQL even Access, ok aside from a few CF tags like using datepart instead of day(#something#)
What a lot of versions to have to make.
Am I wrong? Hope not or else this is a NEW thing to worry about when developing apps! (like I need more things to worry about Scared

)

hey falconseye! Did Megan also say gimmi gimmi gimmi? If she did then I better get royalties!

SQL (Structured Query Language) is SQL (Structured Query Language).

However, each individual RDBMS (Access, Oracle, SQL Server, mySQL, etc) has their own proprietary ...stuff Smile

for example, in Access, now() is the current date.  in SQL, it's getDate().

Access has an autonumber datatype.  SQL Server does not (it has an integer datatype with an identity property).

SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE foobar = 1 will pretty much work anywhere.  it's straight standard SQL.  but the deeper you dig, the more differences you'll find behind each RDBMS that runs the SQL.

Alright, kiddos. My forum is ready for download... kind of!

I want everyone to keep in mind that this release is strictly "as-is" and at-your-own-risk. There's no documentation, no help files. It won't be too difficult for those of you who are pretty experienced with this sort of thing.

With that said, if you email me, I can help when time permits.

Also, one more thing. If you discover bugs that aren't already known, could you please email me? Also, if you fix current bugs, could you email me the solution? Thanks guys!
