immediate updating isnt working

Im doing some testing on Immediate Updating Transactional Replication. I
generated a script to drop the Subscription and Article to a particular
table to add an Identity column on it. After that, I re-added the table to
the Publication and re-snapshotted the table. No problem and all is good at
this point. However now when I insert a record into the Subscriber, the row
isn't getting back to the Publisher *for this table only.* It is working for
other tables though. I scripted out the sp_addarticle for both this table
and a table that the immediate updating is working properly on and they are
identicle with the exception of the names. Whats the dealio? All ideas are
appreciated.
SQL2K SP3
TIA, ChrisR
I figured out whats up. The triggers for Insert, Update, and Deletes arent
being created like they were during the original snapshot. Does anyone know
why?

|||how did you resync after making changes to your subscription.
I think it would be best to recreate your snapshot - it sounds like your
metadata is out of sync.

I had problems like this with merge replication, which could only be solved
by a complete resnapshotting and re-synchronization.

IME?

"Derived column transformation editor"

drag and drop a column into the bottom pane

right click on the 'expression' column and it has a menu item called "open IME"

but nothing happens when I do it.

Is it an expression editor?

Strategic thinking:

Microsoft BI

Reporting Services Expression language: VB.net

Integration Services Expression language: "similar to the syntax that the C and C# languages use"

great!

IME - Microsoft Global Input Method Editors (IMEs) - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/downloads/recommended/ime/default.mspx

It is nothing to do with SSIS, it is just an option that Windows can provide for text boxes. There is no expression editor available for derived columns, just that free entry text box.

As for the new SSIS expression syntax, yes it is a bit annoying it is yet another syntax, but the benefit is that it is very fast and baked into SSIS. Anything else would not be as fast, and in ETL that counts.
