sql server replication: How do I create and sync a local table from a subscription?

I imagine I'm missing something simple. I currently have a sales order
processing Access/SQL 2005 applicaiton we run on our SBS2003 lan. I'd like to
run it disconnected from other locations and sync the changes. Reading trough
the books online, it looks most like the Sales Force Automation (SFA)
scenario using Pull Merger Replication.

I follow the steps creading a distribution with Management Studio. Just to
test I created a publication that includes all the records in the
AdventrureWorks SalesTaxRate(Sales) table. It all seemed to go well with no
warings.

Next I installed sQL 2005 Express on a laptop including the replicaiton
option. In management Studio Express I launch the subscription wizard and all
seems to go well. I follow the steps in the wizard and receive no warnings.
The subscription shows up under local subscriptions.

I expected the tax table to show up in the local database I selected in the
subscription wizard, but it has not shown up. What am I missing?

I searched a little more and found the answer. I needed to run the Windows
Sync Manager on the laptop.

Either use windows synchronization manager, an activeX script, or a code
solution.
