Once a day, multiple times a day?How may records need to be copied?Are you replacing a file or adding records to it?How are these machines connected?

If you are copying from different i-Series machines my preference is to use DDM files. FTP would be my second choice. Send us a little more info as Charlie suggested and we will try and point you in a good direction to suit your needs.
