D5 Ent. + MSDE (Access2000) Issues

According to what I've read this weekend, MSDE (which is included in
Access2000) works just like SQL Server 7.   We use D5 Enterprise w/Info
Power2000 and ADO (SQL7)  for our code.  Has anyone encountered any
problems using MSDE for single user?   It looks like a license for
Access2000 will be required, since it's not developed using MS tools.
TIA for any comments.

MSDE is SQL Server 7. It is truly the same code base. It just has a governer
in it to restrict the number of users so it will work exactly like SQL
Server does.

MSDE is just another version of SQL Server 7 with a 2 gig limit on the max size
of a database and a limit of processing 5 simultaneous requests

I have not had any problems with multi user access or single user access.

If you own one of the Microsoft development products that allows redistribution
of MSDE and you distribute it with a product developed with Microsoft tools you
should be safe to also use it with your Delphi application.
