Sorry, I neglected to say that the one requirement is that there can be no client installation except that which can automatically be done via something like Java Webstart. The clients could be anywhere, but will most likely be all over the Western Cape. There are no resources to go out to client sites and install or even mail out CD with installations, etc. The app must load off the web and then (once the db has been synced) be able to work offline during the day and sync at the end of a day or may be even a week if push comes to shove. (The reason is mainly that many smaller and rural places will not have ADSL for quite some time, and expecting them to be online via dial-up is not financially feasible) Thanks for all the suggestions already.
