MORE INFORMATION

When you drag a Microsoft Access database file from the Windows Explorer to a briefcase on your desktop, the replication process appears to begin.

The Updating Briefcase dialog box displays icons for the database file and a folder, along with an animation of exchanging sheets. The dialog box also has a label that says "Copying from 'path\database name' to 'briefcase name'."

A second dialog box entitled "Briefcase" appears immediately after the first, and is positioned below the first dialog box. It contains a long message about database replication, a prompt asking if you want to continue, and buttons for Yes, No, and Help.

However, replication has not begun and will not begin until you click OK in the Briefcase dialog box.
