Strange, we an ArcIMS site pulling points & other data out of a SQL Server
database without a problem.  Moving the data to SDF is not a desireable
solution, since we have other systems in place that rely on the same data
being available to ODBC/SQL.  Duplicating data is certainly an option, it
just defeats the point of having an enterprise database in the first place.
