That's a very nice scenario you laid out and something I will keep in mind. However, it doesn't negate the need for web apps - particularly if it is a public site or a subscription based site where user come to you one way or the other,

Thank you for your explanation. That's very helpful.

Now I'll ask another question. Can you build/publish a complex and comprehensive LC app to the web?

Are you asking for query binding to objects? That functionality is built in, but it has become neglected, ignored, and dare I say unsupported, because most of us don't bother to use it. There are substitutes, e.g. SQLYoga that attempt to fill the void, if you want that functionality. Yes, data bind...

I did see some on YouTube. Just wondering if there are some topic specific presented here somewhere?

Thanks

Does LC support the concept of disconnected applications? Where the user first downloads a larger (or smaller) data set and stores it locally on the device in SqlLite, so that when the user is not connected to the server, the data is available locally. If so, could someone point me to documentation?...

Most DB engines LC uses are enormously well documented, so usually the only things needed relate to connections and passing SQL in. Is there a specific question we might be able to help you with? Yes, thank you. I'm quite familiar with SQL, that wasn't my question. My question was regarding "integr...

Does LiveCode support printable reports, as in header-detail-footer and nested grouping?

If so, could someone point me to the documentation?

Thank you

Thank you for your response. I did see the "lesson" web page. As I said, scant documentation on database integration.

BTW: You are confusing me with a west coast entity. I'm on the east coast and have no relationship to that company or its product.

Doesn't seem like it. Obviously you can connect to a db like MySQL but LC doesn't seem to have much interest in db's. Looks like it is kind of a generic programming tool. There is almost no documentation on db related stuff. Can someone who has database experience using other platforms please advise...
