Thank you for the response! I feared that would be the answer. Problem with FM is that their 'web enabled' database is severely limited in terms of scripts and function. I am thinking the only way to beat this is through a VPN of sorts... very highspeed so it can replicate the data with a host/server combo.

[color:blue]I need some serious help with this! : I have a rather complex database solution that I want to clone, copy then install onto a laptop that will be used remotely without internet access. The user of the laptop will read, modify and add new records. The user will not make any changes to the structure of the data. The user will come back into our office once a week or so and hook into our network at which point we can make the transfer. How in the world do I get the two databases to synch / merge the changes. The original database it is copied from will also be changed. Primarily it is three files that will be modified... or um, three tables. There are signficant number of fields for each table..and also relationships. ANY help would be appreciated. Thanks, JS
