Thanks for the link, Steve! As for why not doing it local? These folks

will be accessing the app and their data from various locations, so

hosting it on a database they can all share is key. I'm guessing I

could setup the database locally on each, and setup the replication on

each to communicate to the common web database? This system uses GUIDs

as the PKs for nearly all tables.
