    Adding a conditional merge field

    Question Replicate Menu is greyed out

    This is my first database (getting my feet wet has been great fun!) I am almost ready to use it, so I began looking into replication. The admin tab is missing and when I try to add any replicate menu items they are greyed out. Does anyone have an idea as to why and what steps can be taken to...
