Default English Query - 10-07-2006 , 09:42 PM






Hi,
Can anyone offer an opinion on whether or not English Query is worth
having a crack at? We develop against SQL 2005, using ADOMD .NET and it
seems like a nice UI option, albeit i'm sure it has major limitations
for complex queries.

I only want to use it for simple stuff like "show me sales broken down
by month for 2005"

Is it supported by microsoft? Is it likely to be developed further.

Peter

English Query has been discontinued for SQL 2005, and there is currently no
upgrade path.

However, if enough folks complain...
