In remote data access (RDA), propagating data includes pulling the data from the server to the client, pushing data changes from client to server and optionally tracking changes and errors.

To propagate data to and from client and server, you can configure RDA programmatically.

RDA Programming

The Remote Data Access (RDA) object within the SQL Server Compact 3.5 ActiveX control enables programmatic access to an instance of SQL Server 2005 or a later version. This access is provided by a Microsoft Visual Studio application that is running on a device.

To program RDA in the Visual Studio development environment, use the .NET Compact Framework Data Provider for SQL Server Compact 3.5, which provides the System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeRemoteDataAccess class.
