Thanks again Chris,

Should I break out the CREATE VIEW statements and execute them separately?  
When I run the DDL, I get a lot of this kind of error message:

Msg 111, Level 15, State 1, Line 968
'CREATE VIEW' must be the first statement in a query batch.

Nick

We've discussed supporting sql server, and now is a good time to try it.  :)

This one sounds very limiting...  If you are using mssql, I put the name and 
display name of indexed cols to 900 instead of 1024.  Also, for mssql I don't 
index audit or change log cols (will notice on UI screen to find audit logs).

I did that with one of them, but the others have only one col, so not sure 
how they can be included, unless you have a way.

I tried to run the unit tests, and it made it to 300/1500, and it hung 
(waiting on locked query).  I tried to run queries against the DB, and they 
hung.  This is mssql express.  Anyways, if anyone can help out with this, 
that would be great.  Otherwise, if it doesn't pass the unit tests, its hard 
to say it is ok to use other than at your own risk... :)

Attached is my DDL, we can put the changes in 1.5.2

Chris
