I am currently runnning a mdb where the design master is held on a laptop.
One replica runs from the server at one location and another from the server
at a second location. Location 1 has the problem where every so often the
replica corrupts - recommendation is that I split the database, however as I
have not done this before, I'm not sure of all the ins and outs. Ideally
the whole database needs to be held on the laptop and therefore portable.
Locations 1 and 2 both need access at all times. My questions are:
1) Can a split database be replicated and does that include the front end as
well as the back end
2) Can the back end be used over VPN or does it slow down drastically if so
syncronising is what I do now so not a major issue
3) How complicated is it to make design changes to a split database
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks in advance
