I have an Access 2000 database that I want to copy to another remote machine
and synchronize. I'd like some tips on the best way to implement a connection
between the two machines that is automatically run during the middle of the
night by the parent machine.

This process would need to:
1. call the modem in the child machine
2. manage the replication process - I think that's the right one
3. provide appropriate messages, like "could not connect" or "transfer
complete"

thanks

I'm adding to my own message because this connection between the two
databases is to be done by dial-up/modem. What's a really good way to
implement dial-up connection between the two machines?
