Embedded and distribute MSDE on CD

Hi,

I am trying to find something like a light version of SQL Server 2k to store data for an application that will be distributed through a cd.

Since we also have a web front end for this application when the user is online, we prefer that we can reuse the code for connection on both the cd and the web.

Any idea what will work?

I have come accross MSDE 2k but was not able to find any documentation on the pros and cons for this product regarding its capacity, the type of data it can handle, security, ...

Please give me some pointer.

Thanks very much.
