flash data integration : Web + CD hybrid Flash app. with database

Hello,

i'd like to build a FLASH DATABASE application to be published over the WEB +
offline CD-ROM. To ensure lowest possible interface, development, and
maintenance issues, I plan building a single Flash App published online and
offline.

The problem is that i need a DATABASE integration. On the web, FLASH REMOTING
does a good job of it and just works fine. On the CD, I've never done it before.

- on the CD, should i consider including my FLASH app in a stub DIRECTOR movie
in order to communicate easily with a database ?
- is there a way to communicate easily between Flash and an Access type
database located on the CD

Which (wise) way would you consider ?

Thanks for your answer. Marc

I'm looking at a similar problem. Difference is that I need the app to work on
both PC and Mac. Seems like Director has a bunch of options like Valentina
Xtra, V12-DBE, or Arca Database Xtra.

It seems like XML parsing with Regex is the only option. If that's the case.
what kind of performance can one expect when dealing with 2000-5000 records?
