if you know the client Database's IP address, username and password, then i
don't see why you couldn't just connect with a connection string and update
it using ADO (connection object), just like company A is updating their
database in the ASP page.

Since it's nationwide, and I assume their is no trust between the networks,
there could be some problems with firewalls, protocols, etc. and of course
the response time will be slower.

sorry, couldn't be more help, just thought i'd offer some food for thought.

Subject: Interacting with a client database


ASP gurus,
Is there a way to interact (add, delete, update rows) with a database that 
resides on a clients computer through asp.
The example that follows probably describes it better:
Company A wants to have its clients all over the nation to be able to hit 
its asp pages and update the database that resides at company A.  At the 
same time the clients have a databse on their computer/network that needs to

be updated with the same information.  Is this possible?
Any suggestions will be most helpful.
thanks
jason
