This is very much a newbie question as I have not worked with MSSQL Server
before. I may be hosting a MS SQL Server database for a web site soon and
will require to generate reports from the data.

I assume I can just use SQL queries within my ASP web pages?

Will I need to buy the MS SQL Server client tool to be able to work with the
database? I can run queries on the database without having the client can't
I?

Thanks,
Stephen

Hi,

i think you can use ADO and then there is no need for
client tools or something else. If you do a google with
"ADO in ASP" you will find a lot of information about
books, hints, troubles and other stuff.

bye,
Helmut
