Help Me / Re: Central Database & More ?

Hi Corey,
Thanks for the reply. That seems to be good for multiple PCs at the same location working over a network.
Here's the scenario. I'm sure others would be doing similar.
The client runs poker at 4 venues.
Venue A - Monday night (using laptop 1)
Venue B - Wednesday night (using laptop 1)
Venue C - Wednesday night (using laptop 2)
Venue D - Thursday night (using laptop 2)
Venue A & B are on one side of the state, and C & D are on the opposite.
The idea is that they simply want one central "Player List"
So if a player that regularly plays at Venue A is travelling and plays at Venue D, they can simply give their name to register and not have to give all the additional details the company may usually ask for.
The idea would be ok if at the end of each tournament Laptop 1 & Laptop 2 have to be "Synced" to somewhere central. Even if it was Dropbox for example.
Or can the players list be "Merged" then re-imported again in this way somehow?
I know there is a company that runs locally that started with your software many years ago but seems to have a custom system now (maybe a fork?) that has this "Sync" option there. So how much trouble would we be looking at to achieve this?
Can you think of any solution ?
