How to use Microsoft Sync Framework to synchronize between SQL Server 2008 and .NET Webservice?

Question

Does anyone have an example of how to use MS Sync with .NET web services? I have SQL Server 2008 that provides data for BlackBerry devices through web services using regular web methods. Can I use Sync Framework to provide data through web services and save it back to the database?

As far as I understand your question, you want to synchronize two relational databases through a web service. Sync Framework supports this scenario as described in the documentation .

I wrote some posts based on my own limited experience with this scenario:
