      Try to write a subject line that says something about the thread.

      Yes, of course.

      If you are going to be running a single instance of the application, any database will be able to handle that amount of data, even an Access database. If you are building something that are going to be used from several instances of the program, or is going to be incorporated into an intranet/extranet, or if you see any of this as a likely development in the future, you should use a more stable database solution, like MS SQL Server. You don't have to forsee any future needs, though. MS SQL Express is fully compatible with a full grande MS SQL server, so it would be fairly easy to upgrade if needed. Any type of database can be imported to another, but there are some differences in connection, data types and sql queries. -- modified at 9:28 Sunday 17th June, 2007

        But i guess these kind of applications are better if done using ASP.Net as it could be worked via webpage(internet) or intranet(if want to use it locally with in campus). Please correct me if am wrong. If i am right then i should build this application using ASP.NET, C#.NET, ADO.NET, SQL server 2005 Thanks

          It depends on what the application has to be able to do, really. Most applications that work against a database doesn't really benefit much from being windows applications, as they are working against a central database anyway. Web applications have some benefits over windows applications, though. All that you need to use it is a browser, you don't need any .NET framework or specific datbase drivers installed. You actually don't need the computer to run Windows at all. Unless you have some special requirements in the application that needs it to be a windows application, you can very well make it a web application.
