NorthwindCE Example - Error 80072EFD

I have followed all the instructions for setting up the NorthwindCE example.
I am running the application through the Pocket PC emulator in VS 2003. The
application seems to work in as much as I can see data in the Customer,
Employee and Order controls. When I try to synchronize the data back to the
SQLServer I get the 80072EFD error. I am running everything (VS, SQLServer)
on one PC using Win2000. Has anyone else seen this. Can anyone advise what
I can look for to resolve? Thank you.
 
You error means:
ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT--The attempt to connect to the server failed.

The emulator is very touchy on network connectivity. To have data in your DB
shows that it worked on the initial sync and that you have things set up
correctly. If you have a device, this error should go away.

I do not know of any fix for this issue with the emulator.
 
Thanks Brad. I was wondering if it was the emulator. I went through debug
and it fails on the command replNorthwind.Synchronize() where replNorthwind
is of type SqlCeReplication.

The only contradiction I have to your comment is that it did not work even
on the intial synch. I uncommented the code that allows the CE database to
be copied up to the device(emulator) on first load. That is how I got the
data to the emulator in the first place.
