First ... we need a new sysadmin ;-)
And then a few web programmers. ASP/VBScript, PHP, Perl ... we 
can use anything. 

Here is some preliminary page about us : http://wdc.tmp.com/

Not really. I generate COM wrappers for stored procedures in the 
MSSQL Server : http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz/#SP_COM_generator

Saves a lot of time ... especialy since you don't have to debug 
each method, update the method when the stored procedure 
changes etc.

Yep. It's quite fine ... when I need to update a server I download 
four 40KB "index" files, run a script that compares the hashes on 
the server and on my PC and generates ZIPs containing all files 
that need to be updated and a bat file that deletes the files that are 
no longer needed.

I even generate hashes for stored procedures, views and tables and 
compare those ... though the tables of course need some hand 
work if there are differences.

I wonder why the whole chemistry industry ignores
computer bugs. We all would gladly pay big bucks 
for a functional insecticide.
