The project can be web based or just a DB with a VB type front end with possible web access to it. It can virtually be anything, the only limitations is that it has to be something that can be run from a MS machine, intially anyways. Conversion can of course be discussed AFTER I graduate :) ( as that I will have a LOT of free time then..) The only reason there is really a linux limitation is because the team members have no experience with it. I have SOME linux experience, but not enough to complete a MYSQL project in < 12 weeks or so.
Believe it or not, but 99% of the time people are working on projects that use Access as the DB. *I* do however have experience with MSSQL, so that would be acceptable, but not likely due to the costs involved.
I know, it's asking alot, especially from a linux mailing list :) but I don't really have any choice, and I *really* want to get out of this place.
