Im looking to setup online ordering for my client. They have an intranet setup at their company running ASP and SQL server. There are 4 separate databases for 4 internal companies on the SQL server. They have a website for each of the 4 companies which is hosted on the outside. What I need to do is setup online ordering so when a customer logs into the website they can place an order. The website needs to be linked to the parts table in the intranet SQL server. Once the order is placed I either want it to go directly into the order table on the intranet SQL server. What would be the best solution for doing this? By linking the 4 websites to the SQL database and having the internal people working in the system conflict? I would say there could be about15-20 orders a day per company. Any information on this would help, thanks.

No conflict but perhaps a security issue if the web server is outside the firewall and the database is inside then you'll need to either poke a hole or put a copy of the data on the outside and rig up some replication.
