Hi,
Thanks for the response. I appreciate it.
When we tried to run the install of SQLXML on the web server running the Web
Services (note this machine doesn't have a SqlServer installed - our
database is on a separate server) we got a message saying:
"...at least SQL Server client installation is required..."
It seems like a bit of a restriction that you must install a SqlServer
client before you can install SQLXML. That means if you have a Web Service
which needs the Data.SqlXml assembly then not only do you need to install
SQLXML, but you need to install some version of SqlServer too!
Surely I am missing something here? There must we a way to install the
assembly on a database-less server?
Many thanks,
JB
