Thanks Brent,

    sorry, I should have been clearer - I meant in the context of
using ISyncFilter.

The reason I thought I might need to grab a snapshot was that, if, for
example, a phone number is updated, won't I get passed the phone
number record in the ISyncFilter filter method, whereas to determine
whether to pass this on or not, I need to look at the parent contact
record.

I'll have a play around anyway ...

   cheers,
            m.
