    SQL Server 2008 / VB2008

    I'm building a fairly simple VB2008 application which consists of two parts. An 'Updater', where the user changes the state of certain fields in certain tables and a 'Monitor' which is displaying a Red, Amber or Green icon depending upon the state of the fields in question. The 'Updater' and 'Monitor' are running on different PCs within the LAN and there may be more than one 'Monitor' running at any given time. (there will only ever be 1 'Updater')

    I'm looking for the 'best' method to implement for the updating of the 'Monitor(s)' in real-time. I had considered a TCP/IP connection but that seems a little heavy handed. Is there something inherent in SQL Server 2008 (R2) / VB2008 that could be used?

    Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
