Doing replication manually is troublesome. How do I setup automatic Merge replication.
Do I do it in the following way during the Publication creation stage:
On the "Snapshot Agent" window put two checkmarks in the boxes next to the following:
( ) Create a snapshot immediately
( ) Schedule the Snapshot Agent to run at the following times
Click the "Change" button and set a "Frequency" of something like 1 day and "Occurs every:" 5 minutes?
How often should I run replication, please give a detailed explanation?
