There are tools to convert from osm to shp and from shp to osm if
that's what you're after:
* http://code.google.com/p/osm2shp/
* http://redmine.yellowbkpk.com/projects/list_files/geo
If you want to do any sort of regular updates or bidirectional merging
between two changing datasets you're going to be dealing with problems
that are way beyond the scope of newbies@ though.
