Aside Al's points
- does the sync not fire itself, I thought Windoofs will sync from time to time.?
- if not, it should not be a problem of VFP, I would place it in Windows Scheduler, there it can run privileged. Installer can do this for you.
- the time sync might fail if computers time is to far away from remote time

In case you try a timestamp based solution on tables. Not a good idea on computers distributed.
