MSDE MSDE = Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine
SQL Server version with a limited number of database management functions, limited
data size (2 GB) and limited number of parallel access operations (max. 5 parallel
processes).
Re-index An index is a separate database file that stores information on the fields used in
database tables. Thus, frequent queries can be performed more quickly.
An index can get fragmented when data is being modified. This fragmentation can
cause query performance problems.
The reindex function reduces fragmentation by rearranging the index pages and
compacting the rows on these pages.
Restore This function enables you to ’install’ a database that replaces the current database.
SQL SQL (Structured Query Language)
SQL is an ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standard computer language
for accessing and manipulating database systems. SQL statements are used to
retrieve and update data in a database.

Transfer The movement of data from one location to another. A modern definition would be the
transfer of data from one environment to another.
