I created a Custom Object application on my regular Salesforce account.  I then created a Customer portal and enabled the tab and the custom object on the Portal site. 

It seems to be working, the portal user can view and access the tab and the object.. However, after the portal user enters the data and the record is created it is only saved on their portal account.    That data is not available to other portal users and is not transferring back to my Salesforce account?

I can't seem to find any information on this issue, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Scott
