To provide users access to the files that they require, you define one or more file subscriptions. Unlike a DataPropagator subscription, which can contain more than one table, a file subscription can contain only one file. Thus, if your group of users needs access to sveral files, you must create several file subscriptions (then assign them to a subscription set as explained in"Specifying what information the subscription set accesses", and assign the subscription set to the group as explained in "Enabling the group to access data and files" ). a file cannot be referenced in multiple subscriptions.
The file to which you subscribe the group can be any file stored at the source server. You can use file subscriptions as a convenient way to distribute and update data and application files to the users. For example, it could be an application file that you want to install on the mobile devices, or a resource file required for a Palm OS application to function, or it could be a flat file containing the minutes froma morning meeting.
