It is *possible* to do this - it's not well-documented, but there used to be a version of Intuit's Quickbooks API that would allow a user to sign into a website and grant access to that user's LOCAL copy of Quickbooks. On the other hand, that solution required additional custom software on the user's machine and was tricky to set up under the best of circumstances. I'd recommend you think hard about *why* you're trying to do such a thing before heading down that road... --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
