Hi,
I'd greatly appreciate it if some one can assist me recreate a
functionality I came across in a vfp database, i'm trying to recreate
it in ms access. It's perfect for synchronising different copies of
the same database. I had created a similar setup using windows brief
case with ms access but it's a little too complicated and tends to
merge the different copies by default instead of a one way update.
Here is a description of the vfp database synchronisationation.
It has a download command that you use to save a copy of the database
to a location which can be removable. It also has an upload command
that you can use to synchronise with the contents of the uploaded
folder. However it synchronises in one direction only ensuring that
the contents of the upload location doesn't merge with the contents
from the download location. I think it's some kind of import export
operation but i've run into a dead end trying to recreate it in ms
access. Please help!
Thanks

i don't know where else you may have posted your response, Roger, but the
newsgroup that i'm seeing it in is microsoft.public.access.forms - which is
indeed an MS Access newsgroup.
