Hi,

I am using SQL Server 2000, Visual Basic and I need the best wayout for the situation below.

I have a Main Server Installed in the Main Branch, and 17 other Server installed in different states all over country. All are connected through Internet using Golbal IP addresses.

What all I need is on a perticular condition I wants to send Some of the tables from Main Server to all the 17 Branch Servers.

After successfully sending the tables, I have to genreate the report also.

What are the best possible solution for the situation.

Expecting solutions....

David actually hit the answer as well as the manners lesson

DTS is the way to go. Set up a DTS package to copy data to each location.

Hi again...

Got it.. DTS is the fastest solution for that.

One more thing... Is it possible to run a DTS package on NOT only on time based but I also on some conditoin. Actually I need to check weather the table has been changed. Then only it is worth to send tables to the other servers.

You any step towards the solution is heighly appriciated..
thanks a lot

You could create triggers on the table, that when an insert or update occurs, then the dts package is executed.

You might also look at DMO to do this to save implementing dts packages.
Example of DMO for object transfer at

DMO transfer
You don't need to set all the parameters.


==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

When you say when the table has been changed, you mean the structure or the data? I'm thinking you could replicate them here.
