I am in a bit of a quandry. I have created a database to keep track of complex contact management information. This is loaded on a Filemaker server at a main office. The real trick is this I have 5 users traveling with laptops in the field that need to have that info locally (they won't always have the ability to be on the net). If one of the mobile users makes a change on the road they need to be able to sync those changes when they open the database and are connected to the net (my thought is when they open the program it will try and do a sync). Is there a plugin out there for this or a simple way to do this? Anyone, anyone...Bueller, Bueller?

Try Syncdec plugin Link its very expensive, but it does exactly what you want.

Is there anything like this but, not nearly so darn expensive. i need this functionality for this project but, also for another with wider deployment. these prices don't support that concept.

Your link is screwy: www.syncdek.com

The real kicker here is that this is built into FM Mobile whywouldn't thye include this in the regular version?

You'll need to 'roll your own', as I don't believe there is anything else out there. There are a number of audit trail CFs that have been posted which represent good starting points.
