I want an SQL server for Windows XP that has a capacity of merge replication with an SQL Server 2000. Would MSDE work? Are there any objects in the .NET Framework built for Merge replication?

I basically want the functionality that exists between the .NET compact framework (System.Data.SqlServerCE namespace), SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server CE.

I've been programming on the .NET Compact Framework for about a month and now we have a change of plan.

Peace

PS: I have been reading for 2 days trying to figure this out.
