ConflictResolver is not working right

Question

The ConflictResolver are :

csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerDeleteAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;

If the Client update and the Server update OR if the Client update and the Server delete. Everytime i press btnSyn button the server wins, but i want the client to win.

Please, advise me.

private void LoadData()
{
  //dataGridView1.DataSource = ctx.Employees;
  ctx.Refresh(System.Data.Objects.RefreshMode.ClientWins, ctx.Employees);
  dataGridView1.DataSource = null;
  dataGridView1.DataSource = ctx.Employees;
}
private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  ctx.SaveChanges();
}

private void btnRefresh_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  LoadData();
}

private void btnSync_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheSyncAgent syncAgent = new TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheSyncAgent();
  syncAgent.Employees.SyncDirection = SyncDirection.Bidirectional;
  var syncStats = syncAgent.Synchronize();

  TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheClientSyncProvider csp = new TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheClientSyncProvider();
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ServerWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerDeleteAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;



  MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Uploaded/Downloaded: {0}/{1}{4}Uploads/Downloads Failed: {2}/{3}{4}", syncStats.TotalChangesUploaded, syncStats.TotalChangesDownloaded, syncStats.UploadChangesFailed, syncStats.DownloadChangesFailed, Environment.NewLine));
  LoadData();
}

private void btnSync_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  //Create SyncAgent to have access to everything locally
  TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheSyncAgent syncAgent = new TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheSyncAgent();
  //=========================================================================================================
  //Determine the table and the direction for sync
  syncAgent.Employees.SyncDirection = SyncDirection.Bidirectional;
  //[Bidirectional( upload To the server first, then download from ther server )]
  //[DownloadOnly (Download from the server after full Sync )]
  //[Snapshot     ( Complete Refresh everything )]
  //[UploadOnly   ( upload to the server after full sync)]
  //=========================================================================================================
  //Create the ClientSyncProvider and ServerSyncProvider to use them in monitoring the failer in both sides
  TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheServerSyncProvider ssp = new TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheServerSyncProvider();
  TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheClientSyncProvider csp = new TaskTrackerDataEntityCacheClientSyncProvider();
  //=========================================================================================================
  //The SqlCeClientSyncProvider also includes a ConflictResolver property that you can use to resolve conflicts on the client. For each type of conflict, you can set a value from the ResolveAction enumeration:
  //ClientWins, ServerWins, FireEvent

  //There is no requirement to set the ConflictResolver for each type of conflict. 
  //You can resolve conflicts as you do on the server, by handling the ApplyChangeFailed event
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientUpdateServerDeleteAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.ClientInsertServerInsertAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ConflictResolver.StoreErrorAction = ResolveAction.ClientWins;
  csp.ApplyChangeFailed += SampleClientSyncProvider_ApplyChangeFailed;

//This function will run the client update over server update

  if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ClientInsertServerInsert)
  {

    //e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryApplyingRow;    //retry applying the row. The retry will fail, and the event will be raised again if you do not address the cause of the conflict by changing one or both of the conflicting rows.
    e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite; //retry with logic to force applying the change.
  }
  if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ClientDeleteServerUpdate)
  {
    //e.Action = ApplyAction.Continue;          // ignore the conflict and continue synchronization.
    //e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryApplyingRow;    //retry applying the row. The retry will fail, and the event will be raised again if you do not address the cause of the conflict by changing one or both of the conflicting rows.

    //e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryApplyingRow;    //retry applying the row. The retry will fail, and the event will be raised again if you do not address the cause of the conflict by changing one or both of the conflicting rows.
    e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite;//retry with logic to force applying the change.
  }

    //e.Action = ApplyAction.Continue;          // ignore the conflict and continue synchronization.
    //e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryApplyingRow;    //retry applying the row. The retry will fail, and the event will be raised again if you do not address the cause of the conflict by changing one or both of the conflicting rows.
    e.Action = ApplyAction.RetryWithForceWrite; //retry with logic to force applying the change.
    //Logic goes here.
  }

  if (e.Conflict.ConflictType == ConflictType.ErrorsOccurred)
  {
    //Logic goes here.

  }

It's really unclear what you're asking, what this code is supposed to do and what you have tried to resolve this, but you seem to create a SyncProvider and don't do anything with it.

As I gather from a few web search hits for "SyncProvider apply ConflictResolver", you need to do something like this:

syncAgent.LocalProvider.ConflictResolver.ClientDeleteServerUpdateAction = ...
