Currently I develop desktop applications with Vfp 6 & 9. The data entry to 
the databases are been done by say operators in desktops. The owner 
generally has a laptop and he likes to copy the data to his laptop in the 
evening so that he can evaluate the work done so far.

Now the operators copy the data to a flash drive and gives it to the owner 
when they leave for home. Will the sql process be as easy as that or very 
different.
