Noob question - I have MSSQL 7 running on my machine, although I'm not sure how it got there. I have one DB program using it along with the UPS Worldship program. The latest version of Worldship (9)will not install unless it sees SQL 2000 or better.

My DB people claim no component of SQL ships with their product or XP Pro. So, how did it get on my machine and how to upgrade? I can't believe UPS would make me buy the full version of SQL just to run their program!

TIA,
Mark
