You can replicate an MS Access database ... it's not for the faint of heart
and isn't a trivial matter, however. There are several good resources for
replication (microsoft.publ ic.access.repli cation is a good newsgroup to
frequent; the Access Developer's Handbook go into replication in some
detail.

If your frontend built in MS Access, hitting an Oracle database? I assume
you could replicate the frontend, but FWIU, replication is intended to
replicate data, not design.

The only valid reason for using Jet replication these days, I
believe, is for laptops.

Jet Replication does not work well for any part of an Access
project except the data tables and queries (Jet objects).
Replicating forms and reports eventually leads to corruption and
data loss.

If you're trying to support remote users of an existing Access
application, I would say that Windows Terminal Server is a much
better option than attempting replication, which is fraught with
problems.

For what it's worth, I started using replication with clients'
applications back in 1997 and at this point, have no clients still
using it. On the other hand, one client operated an office in
London and an office in NYC, along with two outside contractors at
home in Connecticutt, using replication, and they did this for
nearly 3 years. It worked very well, but it was fragile and needed
lots of care to keep it all working smoothly.

Now I'd do the same thing with Windows Terminal Server, hosted in
the NYC office.

Access Back-End Over the Internet?

by: Raphi | last post by:

Hi, I've been using an Access application I wrote for an office with the front-end stored on all computers and the back-end on one of them serving as an Access file server. Now we're moving to a 2nd office 15 minutes down the road. Only one office will be open at a time, so theoretically it'd be possible to copy the back-end manually every night from one office to another, but frankly, that's pretty annoying.

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
