With all yer bitchin, you might have been done doing it manually by now ;) Or, you could have spent 5 minutes in Google and come across [link\|http://groups.google.com/groups?q=perl+access+dbi+structure+%22create+table%22&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=nfCu7.20025%24DJ3.1619578%40nlnews00.chello.com&rnum=3\|this]. Maybe with a little lovin, it would give you the SQL you need to recreate your DB wherever the hell you want, indexes and all. -- Chris Altmann

I think that MySQL might be a better front end database than Access, and it would cut out one more Access project. But like I freaking said a million times by now, it is not within my fucking power to choose the database to run this on. It is the owner and the coworkers that have decided on SQL Server and they hired me because I knew SQL Server. Any ideas on how to convince them? *[link\|http://games.speakeasy.net/data/files/khan.jpg\|"Khan!!!" -Kirk]*

Then do what they're paying you to do. Learn new skills on your own time on your own dime. === Microsoft offers them the one thing most business people will pay any price for - the ability to say "we had no choice - everyone's doing it that way." -- [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=38978\|Andrew Grygus]

I had an Oracle and SQL Server and MySQL set up at home and Postgres in Cygwin, but I just reformatted the server to start over clean to take work home. I'll put the databases back up, at home, and see what I can do. I am only developing SQL Server and Access at work. No other database unless they tell me to, but if I learn at home, and they ask me to later, I'll have the skill set. Interbase was downloaded at home, and on my home system, not my server at work or my laptop at work. Besides I try out new software at home anyway. *[link\|http://games.speakeasy.net/data/files/khan.jpg\|"Khan!!!" -Kirk]*
