Jim, >> PCAnywhere, for all its weirdnesses does create a suede VPN << Suede?!? A little mis-typing there or is this a new, hip adjective? The host system that my client has is on a cable modem, so that's no problem. However the remotes will all be dial-up. Does this present any problems? I used PCAnywhere v. 8 quite a lot with dialup a few years ago to do remote control work on a client's system. But what you're suggesting here is a "live" replication, not indirect. My main concern with this is the number of graphi images added to the database. I've trained the users to make sure that all the graphics are converted to GIFs before being pasted into Access...but there will still be a significant number of them. This looks workable. I'm meeting with my client tomorrow morning and I will suggest it to him after eating some humble pie regarding my too-optimistic presentation of Replication as a good tool for his situation.
