There is at least one product on the market that MIGHT be able to do this, since syncing a PC and copy files to a USB (or whatever) device are not the same thing. However, even if that's viewed, by whatever product you may find, as illegal, if the PDA software maintains a folder that is also synched, it might be allowed. You're better to avoid allowing the user to connect to the workstation at all via anything. You can do this a number of ways but the easiest would have to be something along the lines of a blackberry and blackberry enterprise server.

PC = Windows environment PDA = no specific brand, users bring different PDAs Thank you all for your suggestions/remarks Ronish
