You could probably set up a few 'server' machines that would host the 
database (lets say one in each country) and have the others work on it 
through smb shares... That would require concurent access to the sqlite 
database. Or if that does not work the FAQ states "[using an embedded 
SQLl database] leaves the door open to retargeting monotone to a larger 
RDBMS without much effort, if it's attractive to do so someday in the 
future."

I don't have VS.NET (yet). I think we should have it here in school but 
I haven't had the time to contact the right people (as they are skiing 
now anyway :-)). I tried only vs6.0sp5.
