input data

Hi. Id like to create a database where users can input their data away
from the network and then upload it to the database at a later time,
(eg. save forms on memory stick). Is this poss? Thanks... Debs

Yep, there are a few ways of doing this but as a starter for ten I'd suggest
looking at Database Replication in MS Access help.

A Form has no independent existance apart from the database, so this isn't
very easy. You would need to be sure the users have Access installed (or
obtain the runtime version of Access), and use a replicated copy of the
database. Replication is pretty complex and not to be tackled lightly!
