Sync script

[swells808]

Ok so since a true syncing solution isn't cost effective what I would like to do is have a cacheing type solution. Here is the situation: I have a server and 5 mobile users. They are using a database for contact management. What I would like to do is set t so when users open the application it attempts to connect to the server so they have full access to the database however, if a connection cannot be established it will bring up a cached version that was downloaded that last time they connected. When they are working offline they will have limited ability to browse only and not edit the records. Is there an example script out there for this? I am of the mindset that it would be a good plan to export this as an app using the runtime function from advanced. Thanks for your help!
