Hi, > 1. Do I have to be a programmer to install PostgreSQL, working from > the C prompt? No. Usually good products either come with some bundled database, or ask you to point to some existing database when you start the installation . Is this a web-based or thick-client based software? (You mentioned installing on "all our computers"). Mature products also provide some facility to back-up the data into xml format or some specific format using GUI tool. Any way, once you set up the system, it is very critical that you have a back and recovery mechanism in place. If you install this on a desktop and one day it refuses to boot, all your data will be gone. Regards, Jayadevan
