We want a ClickOnce deployment to users that would access data via web service.  This means that users don’t need to install via MSI or CD but install from the web (usng ClickOnce) the first time & then updates happen automatically.  Plus the data is shared via web service.  Is this possible out of the box in StrataGrame Framework?

LOL...thanks, Ben.  I was answering questions from the house and my little girl was asking me to go outside and play with here and so I got a bit distracted.  Thanks for catching that

Yeah, Ben is right, Kiran.  That is why we created the Enterprise Server.  It allows you, with just a few lines of code, have a remote server (using web services) as your data source.  And as Ben mentioned, you can swap back and forth between local data and remote data.  We have learned that even when in the office and not remote, it is really not any faster to use the local connection versus the ES data source.  Like Ben said, be sure to check out the Smart-Client Enterprise Server sample that comes with the framework.  I think you will be impressed with the speed and you can get an idea of how it works.
