>>Access and SQL Server provide utilities for database replication and synchronisation across a LAN/WAN. Do you know if Tahoe will provide this? Do you know of a utility that extends the DBC to do this?

We have two offices, one in FL and the other in CA. I would like to run Fox on the local workstations with the data on the Novell 3.12 servers on both coasts. However, management needs an overall enterprise reporting facility that combines data for both coasts. Also, data replication and sychronisation would prove useful for business resumption purposes...


Access replication is really bogus. I think it actually uses briefcase if I am not mistaken. You can do this sort of stuff with a VFP backend - but it not inherent to the engine - you will have to do it manually. I think there are some third party tools available. And, since you state that you are on Novell, SQL is out of the question for you - unless you invest in an NT Server.
