I am writing an application that will allow users to share their data from 
records with others over the internet.  I'll explain the example as a calendar 
program to simplify everything.  Say one user sets a date and time in a 
calendar program for a meeting.  his data is stored in a record and he wants to 
invite others to this meeting.  He can email the record to his friends who in 
turn, load into their palms.  This sets the meeting up in their calender 
program (same application).  Right now, I store each "appointment/meeting" as a 
record in 1 database.  the problem is that I don't wanna email the entire 
database to my friends cuz then it would do 2 things, first it would send over 
ALL of my meetings even if they don't apply to them.  Second, it wold over 
write all of their data cuz the database would be the same name.  The only 
solution I can see is to create a function that copies the record to an entire 
new database, and then send that new database to the user.  Then in their app, 
it wold look for any database with the same creatorID.  Is there any other way 
to accomplish this w/o creating new databases?

thanks,

~Tony
