what are the main differences between ms access and sqlserver

Answer Posted / appu

Access is installed as part of the Microsoft Office suite.
SQL Server can be quite expensive.
Access is more suited for desktop use with a small number of users accessing it simultaneously. One reason you might choose to use Access over SQL Server is for compatibility/sharing.
SQL Server was designed to have many hundreds, or even thousands of users accessing it at any point in time.
