But the poster wants to replicatioin from SQL Server to MS Access databases
over the internet. To quote him/her:

"Can I use SQL Server's inbuilt replication to replicate between a SQL
Server
database and a number of MS Access 97, 2000 and 2002 databases over the
internet? "

This article refers to replicating from access databases to other access
database via the internet.
