I just once worked with a company that allowed me access to their
database but it was stoutly secured with 'instead of' triggers that
called well tested SPs. When I wanted it to work outside the box (e.g.
update my external data) I had to write my own SP and have it vetted by
their sysprogs.
btw I have had *very* mixed results with OCR - particularly of scanned
documents.
I'd be very nervous about letting others insert/update data in my
database. Querying, no problem...but other than that, nervous because
they might piss in the water supply.
