One other addition to this. I haven't researched this fully yet but I believe a different version of the sqlite library will be required to run on Windows 8 than with any other platform. I'm not sure how RunRev plan to deal with that one since the two libraries can't co-exist in the same binary.

Currently I'm using the included SQLite while I'm figuring the whole program out, but to stay ahead of the competition, I need to be able to store in the cloud (particularly, for attorneys to use "virtual assistants" in other parts of the countries, and to access files by iPad in court). Anyway, S
