I'm using a replicated SQL Server 2005 database on my server and a SQL
Server Everywhere CTP (v3.1) database as my client app. Everything works
fine (including sync) until I add a row to a table on the subscriber
(client). Upon the next synchronization I get the following error:

'INITCOLVS' is not a recognized built-in function name.

This error also tells me that the problem occurred while applying the new
row to the publisher, not the subscriber.

Any ideas???

Thanks in advance!

What is the compatibility mode on the subscriber? It should be 80 or above.

Hilary, thanks for your reply.

It WAS set to 80, but changing it to 90 seems to have no effect - subsequent
sync operations result in the same error. My understanding is that this
database was previously hosted by SQL Server 2000 and had only recently been
moved to a SQL Server 2005 box.

Any other ideas?

We eventually figured this out (I think).

The original SQL Server 2000 database had been copied to the SQL Server 2005
computer, then attached.

We used the Copy Database Wizard to create a new copy of the database, which
must have "converted" it to a SQL Server 2005 DB. We then published the new
database and all of our problems disappeared.

Hope this helps someone in the future.
