That’s why it’s not a scientific survey, just like the ones on CNN and every other website. Technically, almost all surveys are at least partially biased because they all use self-selecting participants—unless you have ever heard of a survey that either people were forced to do or tricked into doing without even knowing it. As mentioned above, people who have no interest in the survey are not polled, and thus not counted which would be required to make it unbiased (eg database programmers who don’t like filling out surveys or have no time, etc.)

I love how "DB2" is currently trailing "None" in the pole. I had to use that for 2 years with an old employer. Good riddance to both.

First, I entered "VistaDB (www.vistadb.net)". An error came up ("There was an error storing your...").
Next, I tried "CListCtrl" and succeeded.
Strange...

I had the same error entering postgresql. But it worked the second time for me as well.

I for one found it a bit stranget that CListCtrl was missing from the list.

So sorry for my ignorance, but what is CListCtrl or what do you mean by that?
When in doubt, push a pawn.
|
|
|
|
|
Whenever you have an open field in a survey, you must write CListCtrl...

Huh, interesting
What does C represent at the beginning of the word?
When in doubt, push a pawn.

Well, CListCtrl is the name of the class, as is. The C is a Microsoft convension for coding, and stands for "Class", IIRC.

I have voted for sql server 2005 but, i belive what database i use it just depends on client, we can only suggest client to use other database, but they dont understand how important to be choose a right database. Some client didn't want to spend money for database in that case we have to use their suggested database.
I have experience of using .net 2.0 with MSAccess database, and boy it was very strange experience..

SQL Server express edition took some market from MySQL.
MS did the right thing when released such a product.
|
|
|
|
|
We use SQL Server 2005 for internal applications, but I mostly interface with third party products. One uses SQL Server 2000, another uses Caché (which we would never select ourselves) (it's not even a recent version!), we just stopped using a product that uses Ingres, and yet another product uses MySql.
So my code has to be fairly database agnostic.

We ran this survey a few years ago and I based the options on what we saw there.
We are, after all, a Microsoft centric site.
It's interesting to see MySQL doing so well though.

Why are there only SQL*Server versions mentioned and not Oracle version?
The list could also include Oracle 7, Oracle 8, Oracle 9, Oracle 10 and Oracle 11.

Don't forget the light version as well. CP is kind of blind to non-MS kool-aid though.

I'm not sure you propose the right Sqlite, here is a link to the widely used sqlite (embeddable, like what we do in php for example), public domain licensed:
http://sqlite.org/[^]
And the postgresql site (for the spelling):
http://www.postgresql.org/[^]
|
|
|
|
|
Sqlite DO have server implementations, and quite a few!
1. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/SQLite_Server.aspx[^]
2. uSQLiteServer and Client (http://users.iol.it/irwin/)
3. SQLite ODBC Driver (http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/)
4. SQLiteDBMS (http://sqlitedbms.sourceforge.net/)
5. SQLiteDbServer (http://www.terrainformatica.com/sqlitedbserver/)

I was vote number 100 for the MySQL.
I want to learn SQL Server eventually, but I had to start somewhere and free was a good nudge in MySQL's direction.

I know. But I started with MySQL before there was an express.
I'm old and I'm slow.

I don't think you can use the term "free" for any "express" product from Microsoft. Free as in beer, maybe, in some way. But the license is rather restricted and targets mainly new comers.
Postgresql, sqlite are free, by all means. You can do whatever you like with them. Mysql is free too but the GPL may be an obstacle if you have to release your code with it (aka not a web application). But a separate license is possible.
