    Simple enough question:

    My work PC is been switched to a Vista model next week. If I create a database on that using something like Microsoft SQL Server will other comps on the network that are running XP be able to get access to it?

    I presume that there'd be no compatibility issues but can anyone clarify for me?

    There shouldn't be any issues if the install went ok.

    You need Sql Server 2005 with service pack2 at least to work on Vista
