Using JavaScript and WDDX, you can build an app that pulls and writes
data from the harddrive without having to mess with putting a web
server, datasources, application server, etc on the laptop. Of course
there are some limitations, but it sounds like you could just do a
one-time pull from a db, stick the results in a wddx packet, build an
interface to page through the records (very similar to an Access form),
write changes back to the wddx packet (hard drive), and have a mechanism
for saving back to the db when the laptop is web-connected again.
There's an example in Forta's Advanced cf book, Ch. 16.
