Just to be sure I understand your suggestion.
Run the app at all sites but capture any transactions at the remote sites in a
form that they can be sent to the HO site for inclusion in their database?
I guess with Paradox I would need to include code throughout the app to capture
all transactions ( I know Informix used to do this for you - probably still
does).
Where do I find out about NMSMTP etc?
Thanks for your input
Mark
