Hi all,
I have been practising with replication and have set up a databse which is syncing succesfully continuously. I have 2 questions
1. If I want to change the schedule, do I just change the schedule on the merge agent job?
2. Ideally I would like sql server to automatically detect when the publication is available and to sync then. Because I will have the database on a laptop which will only connect to the domain once every day (at night) So I want to just get a vpn connection and it will automatically sync... do I NEED TO USE Windows Synchronization Manager to handle this?

thanks in advance

ICW

1. Yes.
2. I think you may have a few issues with this, but I guess it's worth a try..

Thanks

Do you mean issues with "Windows Synchronization Manager" or with SQL Server.

With replication, i've never tried to do replication this way and am unsure whether it will drop any data or not..
