I was just wondering what databases do other people use?
My personal favourite is MySQL 5.0 and i sometime write program for MS SQL Server.
If it's a simple application, i might use MS Access but i hate it. Reason being that there are not much i can do with it in terms of SQL, it just the basic:
Select, Update, Insert and DELETE.
I am looking around for alterative to access which does require me to install a database engine on clients machine. (An alternativve which might work is SQLite but dont yet understand how to connect to it).
