Hoping somebody can clarify if profile documents replicate.
I am sure the trainer in the recent training course I completed stated that profile documents do not replicate and a reference book I purchased states that profile documents do not replicate, however, the help text within Domino states that prodile documents DO replicate!!
Which is correct?
Many Thanks

They definitely replicate.
The thing is, they are cached in memory and replication may not update the cache, so it can be deceptive. It might not appear that they have replicated because you are looking at the cached copy.

Not only do they replicate, they can get conflicts (for database-level profiles). So make sure you have your conflicts settings for the ose forms set correctly to handle this.
Also, to expand on the memory caching, the profile data is cached separately for each user when they open the database. So if someone else updates the profile while that person has it open, those changes may not affect others who are working in the database until the next time they open the database (depending how it is being accessed within the application).
