I have a SQL Server 2005 publisher with SQL Server 2005 subscribers and one SQL Server 2000 subscriber running merge replication.

Is there any way to modify triggers at a subscriber with the replicating schema changes set to false (replicate_ddl = 0) without reinitializing the whole publication?

A solution where the triggers are only modified on the SQL Server 2005 databases is fine.

Yes, you can use the system stored procedure sp_addscriptexec to run an ad-hoc script on all the subscribers.

  • Thank you for you help but unfortunately this does not work in my case. Merge-Replication is currently at SQL 2000 level and when I tried this it did not work.

  • @Brian: The article I linked to says it should work on SQL 2000 subscribers. Are you getting an error message?

  • The error I am recieving is: The schema script '0020_Script01.sql' could not be propagated to the subscriber. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201001) Get help: help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201001

    Please ensure the SQL Server service account has read and write permissions on the snapshot folder and read permissions on the location where the script is stored.

  • The account used has permissions for everything.
