Actually DB2 v2.1.2 on NT, seeing that's the platform they wanted to use. DB2 *is* a major database, of course - but not very big on this platform at present. That said, v2 was written with NT in mind, so you should find it works well - unlike, from what I read, at least one of the dominant RDBMS players on that platform. It's also technically advanced, and even more so with the new release later this year. -- Jeremy Rickard
