Replication 1

[mkov]

Can someone explain replication to me? I have searched the archives and FAQ's here and really didn't get a good understanding of it. I have also look at the help in Access and some other sites, but still don't really understand it.

I am having a problem with a web site that is being developed with one of my databases being the source for data and the programmer is having a problem where he has to have exclusive access to the database or the web site will come back with errors. The database is currently used continuously throughout the day by one of our departments and I am trying to find a way to make this work and thought that replication may work, but need to understand it before I go there.

Thanks for your help.

Be warned, Replication can be a hightmare.

Search Microsoft.com for a White paper on Replication, that goes into a lot of depth on it.
