I'm pretty sure this is going to turn out to be true but before I waste too much time attempting it, if I want to pull a live Azure site back into my dev, I'm going to need at least a full SQL server here, rather than the SQL Express I developed the solution on, correct?
My intention is to implement some version upgrades, add some programming functionality and work in some new content, all at once, so I figured it'd be cleaner to just redux the whole thing, beat it into submission back here, then overwrite the live site, rather than trying to finesse all that through SOP's.
I know that in the past, I've never been successful squeezing a db back into SQL Exp and I think Azure will only make that worse.
Can't go backwards from SQL Azure to SQL Exp for site redux?
