Here are a couple of ideas:

1) Have an "application server" act as the primary interface to the
database: a central server performing all the db access for the whole. In a
static class member, have it retain which tables and records are currently
"open but locked". Have it allow only ReadOnly access to those records
while still locked. This is still "disconnected", but with a flavor of a
connected environment.

the problem with this is you cant use ado.net classes like
SqlDataAdapter and DataSet, data binding to controls, no?

the key, I think, to bringing RPG to .net is being able to mix in the
.NET classes into the code.
