What version of MobiLink are you using?
Where is the folder of JPG files located, at the remote or the
consolidated database?
Do you want the files to end up in the database at the other end of the
synchronization, or also in the file system?
On what platform are the MobiLink Server and MobiLink Client running?

Hi Grigoris,

In that version of Mobilink, I believe there are features to transfer files
without loading them as BLOBs into the database.

However, in case you are in a similar situation as us, then its worth
knowing that it really depends on your application design.

One of the reasons why we still store the images as BLOBs is because all our
Mobilink applications are extensions of existing applications. The
Ultralite synchronises with the SQL Anywhere database and then either in the
same sync or through DBMLSync separately, synchronises the data to the
backend system. Last time I checked, the feature built into Mobilink to
move external files around for you would only work on the Mobilink leg of
the journey.

Cheers,

Shao

Hi
JPG are located in directory on the server.
I want them to be copied in the file system of pocket PC.
I use mobilink supplied with version 11 of ASA.
The sourse system run Windows XP destination Windows Mobile 6.5

Have a look at the mlfiletransfer utility and the -ftr switch on the
MobiLink Server. You can definitely accomplish what you want with
minimal effort using MobiLink.
