I am not quite sure of the whole list protocol stuff so I have been posting to the following: http://groups.drupal.org/node/568 I have worked up a provisional database.mssql.inc and made a database.mssql file to set up the database. I have a number of issues the most difficult of which is the query that is designed to add results to a temporary table for later use on the page. At present MS SQL doesn't support CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE - I'm not sure if this is SQL2003 compliant but either way it isn't available in the same manor. I have posted some thoughts on alternate solutions: http://groups.drupal.org/node/568#comment-1403 I would appreciate people's thoughts. Also if somebody could point me to the location where code is submitted that would be useful as it would allow me to put up what's been completed.

The reason given was that a recent decision was made that Drupal stuff wouldn't concern itself with commercial software. I, too, am interested in support for MS SQL Server. Many small businesses I deal with have online stores integrated through SQL Server to Win32 store-front POS applications. Centralization of their databases is important, plus it would give credence to some who scoff at open source solutions. I have both Linux and Windows server environments and would be happy to help develop and/or test this database support as time allows. David Cornelius http://corneliusconcepts.com
