Replication Object and some code, but I was looking for a user friendly
way of doing this. Have you had any experience with managing
synchronization this way?

Replication manager is an administrative tool, not an end user tool.
The users of your app will be able to synchronize without any kind of
replication manager because replicas have the capability of
synchronizing built in.

Subject: [AccessD] Access XP Developer and replication manager
Hi List,
I have what seem like a simple question but I don't seem to be able to
find the answer. I have Office XP Developer. I am looking at the use
of replication to keep several users synchronized on a really slow
network plus be able to synchronize lap tops when they dial in. I got
interested in this method after reading Arthur Fuller's article in
"Inside Microsoft Access", March edition. I also read the chapter in the
ADH on replication to get additional information. What I have been
trying to determine is can I distribute the Replication Manager tool
that comes with the Developer Edition with my database. It seems like
this is the easiest way to set up the replication and synchronization
schedule on the users system. I found an article on the web for access
97 that seems to indicate that Replication Manager is distributable but
nothing on XP and have found nothing in any of my XP literature of help
files.
Has anyone had experience with this tool and been able to distribute it
or does the user need to have the MOD on their machine?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Doug

I am not sure about XP but would be pretty certain that it would be
distributable as well.<br>
