Hello NG,
we have created a database for our schedules on the SQL server 2000.
As we have many satellite stations, we created a merge publication.
The aim of this merge publication is to provide the satellite stations
with their "own" databases, in which they can alter their data and are
able to synchronise with the main server thereafter. At the same time
it is possible to enter data into the main server (in our main
office). The subscribers (?) (the satellite stations) have been
prioritised. The main database, of course, has 100%, and the
subscribers are put into hierarchical order (i.e. subscriber 1=99%,
subscriber 2=95% etc.). For conflict resolution I use the standard
conflict solver (?). Now, this is my problem:
If I alter data on one of the satellite stations and synchronise it
with the main server, the synchronisation is successful. However, if I
change the same data again on the main server and synchronise it with
the satellite station, I get conflicts. But that shouldn't happen. My
understanding of "conflict" is that if I change data set 1 on the
satellite station, then change the same data set on the main server
and synchronise it, a conflict should emerge. But this is not the case
with me. Why could that be? Does anyone have any suggestions? Could is
be a fault with the SQL server 2000?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Dirk H.
