Dick,

I have having some difficulty developing SQL CE
apps using RDA or Merge Replication. There seems
to be a lot is setting for both SQL 2K as IIS on
the host device before I even begin to code my
CF app.

I have managed to get a local SQL CE app working
fine but I am struggling when I try and use RDA or
merge replication to get a DB from my SQL 2K server
to use on my PPC.

I am working through couple of examples at the
moment. One has not worked and I haven't finished
the other one yet.

Do you have any pointers of traps that I should be
aware of with my development?

Thanks,

Jason.

Hi Jason,

Sorry, this isn't something that I can help you with. Have you tried a post
