   The program itself, along with the .Net Framework, will be running on each   
   user's machine, so they can expect perfectly normal performance. As long as you   
   are using a true database server, such as SQL Server or Oracle, 100 users would   
   not be a heavy load.   
      
   By  the way, this is really a VB6 newsgroup, you should find some dotnet   
   newsgroups, such as:   
      
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.controls   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.data   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.general   
      microsoft.public.vsnet.general
