Tim,
> 1. Would it be a problem to run SIMS through a web browser. Why?
Why does everyone assume access would be best through a browser?
I know it would be platform independent, but I dont think you could
provide the speed or rich user interface that you can through a
specialist client side application.
> 2. Using MySQL as the database server.
For speed, one needs to make as much as possible execute on the
server in stored procedures. I thought MySQL does not currently
support this.
What about Interbase?
regards
Richard
