How To Pass A Parameter Or Value To A Publication From A Mobile Device During Sync.

Hiya,

I have a project that requires that I filter certain data going to the mobile device via the publication based on user selected value on the mobile device. (Filter by location based on the selection of the location on the mobile prior to syncronization).

Now, our current authentication model is Windows Authentication, and changing that to Username based authentication is not feasable, and using the users account to pass that value to the database is the only way I can think of to do this... (Then filter based on username)

But then I thought that there has to be another way - such as passing a variable or parameter to the sync request during or before syncronization... Is this possible? If I could query the data being sent back up to the server, for instance, I could do so to retrieve the value I need.... Any ideas?

Any help appreciated!!
