I just got Visual Studio 6 Enterprise which includes SQL Server
7. However, when I try to install SQL7 (Standard Edition ?) on
Windows XP Home it only installs the client components and not
the server component. The install routine claims this is because
of the version of Windows I am using.
Now I know that IIS isn't supposed to be installable on Windows
XP Home but it is with a fairly straight forward hack, so what I
was wondering was is there a way to get SQL7 Standard installed
on Windows XP Home (maybe with a similar sort of hack)?
Failing that (and assuming the SQL7 in VS6EE is "Standard") does
SQL7 Desktop work on Windows XP Home? If so where can I get it
(haven't seen one so far on eBay)?
