Thanks, Ricardo. My bad....the subject SHOULD have read "NF - SQL Server Free Edition"
The client's software developer refuses to support anything but Microsoft's SQL Server, and is pushing for Azure use.
Next time I won't post messages with half a brain...or less.

Ted, I would (almost) give up my keyboard for the chance to get them to use MariaDB or anything other than the Evil Empire's SQL Server.
Unfortunately, I'm not driving the bus on this one and they're convinced that SqlServer and ultimately Azure is the only REAL game in town.

Nothing against "the Evil Empire" but I just don't like using SQL Server as much as I do VFP, MySQL/MariaDB, Oracle.
