After synchronizing there is a conflict error appearing on opening the database. It states that the record was updated at one location and deleted from another. It says that the deletion won. I try to resolve the conflict, but it won't resolve. Does anyone know why or what I can do to resolve it?

Thanks
 
If the two database instances are located in such away that you can link the offending table from one, into the other, then do that. Then build a query using the Unmatched Query wizard to determine what record is unmatched between the tables.

For example, assume in DB 1, you have the table DEMO and from the sycronization source you link in the same table which we will alias as DEMO1. Using the unmatched query wizard, you produce an SQL statement as follows:

SELECT [demo2].[Key], [demo2].[field1] FROM demo2 LEFT JOIN demo ON [demo2].[Key] = [demo].[Key]
WHERE ([demo].[Key] Is Null); petersdaniel@hotmail.com
