Use wildcards (*) or use a directory when entering values in either the "Required files to replicate" or "Optional files to replicate" fields on the Rules tab of the Offline Subscription Configuration Profile document.
If you enter explicit file names in either of these fields, you must re-edit the configuration document each time you add or delete files. For example, if the field contains three files -- SalesApp\main.nsf, SalesApp\contacts.nsf, SalesApp\custom.ntf -- you must update the field each time a file is added to the SalesApp\ directory or else that file will not replicate offline to join the rest of the subscription.
By using wildcards (*) in either of these fields, you specify that all database files or all template files in a given directory are automatically replicated, even files recently added. For example, if you use a wildcard in this way, all NSF files in the SalesApp directory are replicated:
SalesApp\*.nsf
Similarly, to make sure all NTF files in the SalesApp directory are included in the replication, specify the following:
SalesApp\*.ntf
By using just the directory, without a wild card, in either of these fields, you specify that all files in the directory, whether NSF or NTF, are replicated, even files recently added, as in this example:
SalesApp
