Need help for Remote Data Access
Hi,
Currently I am working on a Project. In which client is having Branches in a different Geographical locations. Cleint requirement is to get the information from different branches like current stock information of different Branches.
My application and DB structure will be same on every branch. Is it possible using COM and DCOM?. I am very new in COM technology. Pls. Give your suggestions. Thanks in Advance.

You can use DCOM, which you would use via the COM+ services most likely. It can become a serious hassle unless everything is on the same network.
Another approach is to use Web Services, and this is what I recommend. In VB6 this was called SOAP, and you can find a lot of details on this out on the internet.
