Hi Bert,

Thanks for your encouragement. I have been using AC from the Microsoft Access format to SQL Server. We grew from 2 to 7 doctors in the past 7 years. We have gone through the pain of merging two different offices AC data to one data set. The AC Version 4 using SQL Express has been functioning well for us. We have the same network and servers in the past one year. Problem started after we updated to Version 5.

I was hoping that AC tech support can help us to solve the problem. Talking to their tech, it seems that we are not the only group that is facing this issue. If you think they will not come up with a solution, I'll ask our IT to switch SQL Express to SQL 2005 next week. I hope the AC tech support can guide us through the process.

Philip
