Just Search http://www.mysql.com/ (Its one of the best RDBMS! Adobe, CNET, Wikipedia, Yahoo all use MySQL!) __________________ [xubz] ● http://xubz.com/ [steam_id] ● http://steamcommunity.com/id/xubz

Later you have PostgreSQL. You can also try Firebird which is also free. Also check this site for connection strings related to those providers. http://www.connectionstrings.com/ __________________ i5 2400 \| DH67BL \| G.Skill Ripjaw 4 GB \| FSP SAGA II 500W \| CM 430 Black Elite \| MSI R6850 Cyclone PE/OC \| XBox 360 Controller \| 21.5" Samsung Sync Master 2233 \| 4 Mbps @75GB FUP :) Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion \| Battlefield 3 Low Latency Servers List
