    <p>Certainly replication is possible, as is <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/sync" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Sync Services</a> if you're not afraid to get your hands dirty. It depends on the details of what you need:</p> <ul> <li>Sometimes-connected application wanting to have a read-only cache: Sync Services</li> <li>Sometimes-connected application wanting to have part or full update ability: Sync Services</li> <li>Remote site with multiple workstations needing read/write access to data: replication if you can get a secure network connection that's stable enough, otherwise look at extending Syn Services to work with SQL Express (or full SQL Server) based on the sample here: <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/sync/archive/2008/06/24/sample-sql-express-client-synchronization-using-sync-services-for-ado-net.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Sync using SQL Express</a></li> </ul> <p>If you just want a SQL CE database and you're working with a SQL 2008 server then the wizard in Visual Studio 2008 SP1 will do all the work for you, you need only add 1 line of code to it if you want bi-directional support. If you can't upgrade then it will take more work with SQL 2005, and it's only reliable if you have at least SP2.</p> <p>I'm in the middle of a project that requires multiple sites to have a sub-set of data in an environment where each site may lose it's connection to the head office at times, we've managed to get Sync Services to work with SQL 2008 at the head office and SQL Express 2008 at each site with full change tracking (2008 feature) and it's working great. It does require a reasonable amount of code (C# and SQL), so we've used some pretty smart templates to help. Be aware that.</p> <p>Perhaps you could refine your question with more details?</p>
