SharePoint does a great deal of simple work for you if you let it. We fill internal SP lists, orders to be shipped, with data from the ERP. We then have mainly stagnant lists, Customers per say, and in SP we set a drop-down list for the customer and it filters the orders, needing to go out today or when it did leave, in the view list. Real simple and the control works across all of our many plant's sites.

I was really asking Charlie about how he proposed to get the 'desktop' bit working easily. 'And before people start slobbering themselves with "... but... but... the DISTRIBUTION!!!! OMG!! How could you DISTRIBUTE a rich client application..." - really, don't bother. Simple file shares (dare I say even "sharepoint"?) make rich client distribution fall-off-a-log easy and secure.'
Kind regards

Posting a document to Sharepoint is so simple. Setting the library to hold it is real easy as well. Keeping versions for me on the file is tremendous. Having a recycle section for me to republish what you didn't think you were screwing up is pretty good too.
