Hi!
I'm setting up a merge replication for sql ce. Ten guys with windows mobile 5 pocket pc works as service technicians and need to synchronize data in the field.
The backend database is huge and I just want each person to have their own data on the pda and synchronized, they have unique userid's in the database. Is it possible to filter data for each person or do all have to have all data that's in the backend database?

Merge replication permits the agents to have subsets of the data based on how the Publication is programmed. One alternate approach would be to publish individual agent tables, but this gets messy as agents are added and removed.|||Could I use a "translator" table to translate suser_name()'s to applications userid's? Then in the filter query against this table to identify the user? One solution could be to have one Publication for each employee? Yes it would become messy to administer. But my problem can't be unique. How do you all query out data for each employee?|||You could have each user identifying themselves when using the application, and setting their userid as HostName on your replication object. Then you can reference this in your publication filter with HOST_NAME().
