You can use MobiLink synchronization with smart client applications to take advantage of the "occasionally connected" nature of a Windows Forms application that has been installed on a client so that it can be run from the Start menu as well as from a browser.
MobiLink is a session-based synchronization system that allows two-way synchronization between a main database, called the consolidated database, and many remote databases. The user on the client computer can make updates to a database when not connected, then synchronize changes with the consolidated database when connected.
You need to deploy the SQL Anywhere database driver and the MobiLink synchronization client file to the client computer. You can simplify this process by adding the required files to a package and adding the package to the Prerequisites page in the Project painter.
