You cannot rely on data transfer overland as you will loose youir data while in transit one day. I presume that you have the same system setup at your end?, and that you only want the updated data to be transfered. If this is the case, why not try to do a SQL replication over the internet. This will ensure that only data will be transfered and not all the other sql files. just a thought

I wish we could burn them to a DVD and mail it to ourselves. But we have on one in Denver to do this for our company and the people we bought the databasecompany from is not helping all that much. We have tried PKzip and it is going to take over 8 hours to transfer the database. Which means that that database will not be useable during the transfer. This the other problem we run into is that we have to have that database back up and running before the time of opening the store at 7:00am. And we close at 11:00p.m. which does not give us the time to do the transfer and unzip the files and get the database up and running before the store is open.

Has anyone used Rocketstream? If they have please let me know what they think of it.Thanks for any and all imput. All of it is appreciated.
