ASP & SQL server Setup
All,
I work in an eviroment with ASP and SQL database. I want to be able to try things out at home and practise making applications however what programs do I need to be able to set up a SQL server and working ASP pages that connect to this (not ASP.net). Can anyone give me instruction or point me where to do this as I will have to add this to my home PC. Thanks Guys! |

Have a look at MSDE (Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine). This is a redistributable version of SQL Server which you can run on your home PC:

You'll also need IIS or PWS (If windows) to view the asp pages.

With these can I just simply install them and run them on top of my current windows configeration?]
If not can you instruct me on where to look to get these simply set up so I can get started. Thanks!! |

IIS and PWS is provided by MS for all versions of Windows except XP Home.
For learning and development, I recommend you get the SQL Server Developer Edition, when I got my copy it was about $50.00 US. MSDE doesn't give you any of the client tools for the database server. Other tools I use are Access as a front-end to SQL Server, and Visual Studio for creating and working with web applications.
