    no Oracle isn't better suitable - and SQL Server Express will still hold with that volume. what you need to find out is exactly how many records each table that you need to create will have - and if any single table after you load all records will have more than 10GB.

    For the other 2 questions you do need to ask the other developer as there is nothing I can do there as it is application dependent.

    You can even beat the 10GB limit of Express by using multiple databases and partitioned views.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
