Martin,

you should get yourself familiar with events. Together with Update/Insert/Delete triggers you can
notify all your clients about any changes of any table. The client gets a notification and can then
decide whether or not it needs to refresh its querys.

I don't think that this can be done any other way since the server cannot just send anything no one
has asked for.
