Jim, I too am interested in Replication and have an opportunity to use it if I can figure out how to do it over a dial in connection. Do any of your users dial in to update their databases? If so I would be interested in how you set it up. Thanks.

The government has been using it's own internal network, first through fast dedicated phone lines and finally an 'Ubiquity' fiber-optic connection that now covers most of the province. I have ran Access97 through the net and noticed no major problems but it was only a test and not under full load. It should be stable in the current versions of Access, even running across the net. VPN would be good to secure the connections but I am not sure that it would be any more or less stable than a standard internet connection.
