msde

Can MSDE be used on computer in different cities? Say the server in Dallas
and the client computer in Houston. Or is the full SQL Server required?

MSDE is the desktop database, where it runs in not a question, it can
run were you install it based on the license restrictions. The real
question should be "How do I securely access a MSDE database running in
another city?"

As long as you properly follow the license restrictions you can install
MSDE anywhere.

As for connecting, use a VPN tunnel - do not directly expose the MSDE
(or any other service) to the internet unless you know security inside
and out. A VPN from one location to the other is painless to setup and
means that all of your data/connection is secure and not directly
exposed to the internet.

I'm looking for a simple way of telling (inside a stored procedure) if I'm currently using MSDE or a full SQL server. Ideally, there is some pre-defined environment variable that won't cause me too much overhead. The reason I'm doing this is because my system "rolls over" databases when it reaches the 2Gb limit with MSDE, but obviously I want to avoid this overhead if the user installs onto a full SQL server instance. Thanks

Hi I want to package my C# winforms app, to be deployed with MSDE, as easily as possible for the end user. I want to create an MSI or Installshield (prefer MSI), to setup my C# app, together with MSDE (if not already installed), and the MSDE application DB. How can I detect if MSDE is already installed?? Has anyone does this?? How??
