Forget I asked. 😀

I am looking into actual limitation of the Developers edition to verify the 180-day limitation objection.

The client told me that the Dev Edition was limited to a 180 evaluation period. Was he wrong about that?

I just thought of a second, more likely problem. An error in the development database could cause consumption of resources that would impact other databases. Also, there's the danger of...

It is possible, as I said before, to use Access as the Front End to a SQL Server Back End. I do it all the time when I have large...
