[AccessD] Negative replication

Hi Steve:

The application, that I keep referring to, that a client used, was setup for
a couple dozen roving individuals who would login, at various times, from
various locations, that could be from some seedy motel, anywhere in North
America. There was only problems initially, when I was attempting to run a
bound database model, (changed that quick enough) and subsequent about half
a dozen duplicated records caused by line-noise or the computer goblin.
...but were easy enough to fix.

HTH
Jim

Jim,

>> Is that close enough? <<

Kinda makes the case for DSL or cable modems, eh?

I'm mostly curious about any real-life adventures with, say, database
corruption by sending replicas back and forth on CD. I get the idea from
Mike Kaplan on the Trigeminal site that it isn't a good idea at all. The
implication is that corruption is right around the corner, though he doesn't
give any specifics. What's really wrong with making more and more replicas
and synchronizing via CD copies of those replicas?
