It's more of a case of having used SQL since 6.5 and having experience with SQL7 and SQL2000 since their first release going back to SyBase seems a big step back.

Add to this that the server has been installed as case sensitive. The server itself is managed by an external agency.

We had a problem with replication where it seemed to be replicating commands rather than data. As the service is external and I'm only involved at the periphery I wasn't able to get to the bottom of it and the external agency was decidedly woolly on the ins and outs of it.

I suppose its abit like flying on Konkordski after being used to Concorde.
