What do you mean as the data increased the line communication become insufficient? As the database grew, or as the amount of data you were trying to push across at one grew? I would suggest setting up Merge replication again and telling it during the setup wizard that the subscriber has existing data so it does not initialize the database. For your communication needs you can change the settings in the merge agent of how many commands to send at once.

Thanks but the bi-directional merge is no longer a business requirement.

Have eventually discovered that by clicking "default article properties", the option "keep the existing table unchanged" is the option I need.

Feel rather silly for not finding this earlier...
