Hi :)

I've been looking for different data synchronization (in database) methods in both networked and non-networked environment for some time now...Also tried google without much success :(

Much appreciate if someone could provide any source/s where I can get information about different data synchronization techniques (network and non-network environment but mostly in a non-network environment).

Thanks.
 
Hi again :)

I guess I should explain the scenario a lil bit. I am talking about an vb application where two way synchronization occurs. For example, a store has a database of its stock. Then,

A salesman goes out with his laptop and sales some goods.

Goods are purchased at the office and recorded in the database.

End of that day, the database should contain a complete upto date information e.g. sales by salesperson (deduction of stock) and purchase of stock in the office (add stock). Therefore, after synchronization both the ofiice database and the laptop database should be same.

I am thinking of using only one database with different 'sales', 'purchase' and 'stock' tables.

Is it the best way to do? Any other suggesstions will be much appreciated.

Thanks.
