Which local datasource to use? [modified]

[Rashar]

Hello, Looking for some advice on choosing a local data source for a call reporting project that will have approximately 25 end users using it. I have currently developed the app in vb.net. As of now, I am just using SQL Express edition and if I am deploying the project, I would like to be able to quickly access the data on the end users PC. Also, i'm finding that if I make a change in any of my table definitions (such as adding or removing a column), it seems to clear the data in my tables. On the other hand, if I use MS Access, I get quick access to the tables if need be and I can make changes to the table without worrying about loosing data. Any suggestions from a maintenance / performance perspective on the 2 sources? Thanks, Rashar -- modified at 19:45 Monday 10th July, 2006
