Hi Debbie,

I think this depends on what kind of external resource you have.  Are you able
to see what Java class is implementing the external resource?  For instance, I'm
guessing you must at some point in your code have some code that says something
like:

myResource.myMethodToGetDataFromIt(...).

If you have that, you can see if the class implementing myResource has a method
you could call to reload itself.  If it does, then you could build a little
timer application that went off once a day, and called that api, perhaps with
some synchronization...

Does this help, or have I misunderstood things? -Marshall
