Does Oracle Lite do this? I remember attending a seminar where Oracle
were talking about running Lite on PDAs to support sales force
automation. They could take orders and check inventory on their PDAs,
query contacts and itineraries, etc, then it would replicate to real
Oracle in one batch when they connected to dial-up every day. There was
a mechanism for reconciling conflicts, for example if you had 100 units
in stock, salesman A sold 50 and B sold 60, maybe customer A would get
45 units and B 55 until new inventory was ready. That sort of thing.

I'd appreciate hearing from folk what "solutions" there are for the
following scenario. Users with laptops want to be able to input data
whilst
not connected to database for subsequent upload to database. Apart from
developing PL/SQL code to realise this functionality with associated
integrity checks etc. are there other possible (3rd party) solutions?
If database was small enough there has been some notion of copying
database
to laptop and subsequently re-synchronising when connecting to central
database. Are there solutions out there for this?
I've a sneaking suspicion the solution to this is hidden in the caverns
of
my memory but it ain't coming out!
Thanx in advance for anyone who takes time to reply :)
