Re: Save data in a flatfile

It's a common problem. The flat file wouldn't be ideal. The standard method, I think, is ...

(i) create a data input app that runs on salesreps' laptops implementing all necessary business rules to save new rows to a laptop db which runs a local installation of mysql against tables required for input,

(ii) give the app that runs in the main app the ability to access any given salesrep's laptop db, import data from that db into the main db and log the event, then truncate the laptop db making it ready to repeat the cycle.
