I'll second mySQL. Also, you can use PHP within HTML to connect to a
MySQL database. This means you could run your document database over
your company intranet.

Subject: Cheap SQL application
Hi, guys....before I hit my company up for a seat on their Microsoft SQL
Server 7 Enterprise, is there a cheap (we might be talking about my
money) SQL application that I could load locally on Win2000 for doing
simple queries?
I'm accumulating a database of physical/virtual/cluster machine names,
databases names, MSMQ names, database tables, stored procedures, ODBCs,
IP addresses, etc., that I need to present in different views where I
could extract the information that I need in the sequence that I need it
for inclusion into documentation.
An example might be:
SELECT MSMQ, physical_server, virtual_server
FROM Servers
WHERE SystemDomain = H
ORDER By MSMQ, physical_server;
You get the idea. Anyone?
