Data input to same file at 2 locations

[johnalso]

Different "New Guest" information is being inputted to the same named Approach form file at two geographic locations (not network connected). We would like to bring each location up to date with the combined data at the end of each day. Is there a way?

You can import data from one dbf to another with the option to add new and update existing records. You can also find a specific set of records and export it to a temp dbf from which you can import into another dbf. So each location could export its new records for the day and send to the other location for import. Macros can be used to automate the process.

Thanks for the direction. We will exchange dbf files each evening on floppies to update and add to existing data.
