Hi all,
I have two databases at different locations.
Database 1 (local) is emptied say, once per week and re-populated.
Database 2 (remote) is updated from local.
What I want to do is to update the remote without deleting it first, so here
are the actions...
Compare the content of remote against local.
Delete from remote where no longer in local
add to remote where not exist in remote but exist in local.
I have an ID field as the key field. I don't want to disturb this really as
I want to be able to do a form of tracking (nothing complex and not to be
relied upon) though I want to be able to allow the remote user to be able to
come back based on the ID.
What I am currently doing is dropping the remote and recreating from the
local.
Is there a tool that will allow me to do this or am I going to have to rely
on a multiple sql statement to manage it. If SQL, can you give me some idea?
Thanks.
Dave Colliver.
