I have a client which have a LAN in his office (point A) and have his file server in another (different) location (point B).
Question:
We want to make a connection between points A & B that look like they are in one sub net to make users in the point A can access their database at the point B.
condtions:
-In the point A we have a static IP (provided by ISP)
-In the point B we cant have static IP but we can use a Dyndns Service instead.
-We are running a SQL server database on point B which is using by user at point A.
Now please give me a solution to connect these points.

Your question seems to be based on a false premise. Accessing a database or a fileserver does not generally require being in the same subnet.

so give me a solution to connect my file server at the mentioned conditions without using the same subnet.

By default accessing database dose not require being in the same subnet, you right, but in my situation, my client uses a software that checks for LAN subnet and routing so my first (maybe even) choice is to use both lan in the same subnet.

If you want it to look like you're in the same subnet, you should have a layer-2 connection. All ISPs that I know only provide layer-3 connections. If you want the same subnet, you should build a tunnel over your L3 connections.
Depending on the requirements and the available hardware, that could be anything from a GRE tunnel, to an IPSec or OpenVPN tunnel. Judging from the question, I would suggest investgating an OpenVPN tunnel. Having a static IP makes it easier to connect.
I think it can be happen by using cloud in Mikrotik routers instead of VPN. where VPN tunnel slow down the bandwidth.

Possibly; haven't played with Mikrotik. What I see of the Mikrotik cloud is mostly L3 though. But also for that cloud, you will need some tunnel.

Would you please let me know how to configure a mikrotik cloud? Actually I bought 2 Mikrotik 951-UI2hnd and prepare to set them up. by the way in comparison which one is better? Mikrotik cloud or VPN tunnel with L2TP and IPSEC?
