How do I change the way conflict winners are picked in Access?
I'm assuming that you are not using the built-in replication tool. In your
shoes, I'd use replication as it would better automate the synchronization process. -- Jerry Whittle, Microsoft Access MVP Light. Strong. Cheap. Pick two. Keith Bontrager - Bicycle Builder.

The updated databases are them emailed to the master database to synchronize. Conflicts come up but Access always picks the older record as the winner instead of the newer updated record. How do I change it to pick the newer record not the older one?

Sorry about my incorrect assumption.

Yes, I think I am using the built-in replication tool. I go to Tools, Replication, Synchronize Now & it synchronizes the databases. After its successfully synchronized, then it shows the conflicts. However, it seems that Access always picks the older version of the record that was updated as the conflict winner not the most recent which is always what I want.
