Right now i have SQL Express installed on 2 machines. I am able via vb to communicate with each database, read and write data between databases but cannot seem to figure out how to perform a simple replication.

Bottom line is, i need to be able to replicate via vb code 2 sql express databases with each other.

Thanks"

then you will need to simulate how replication works using vb
i don't think this will be realtime unless you employ triggers to call the vb exe to propagate the changes
