can we implement snapshot replication using the snapshot that is generated by Transactional Replication?
Thanks,
Ravi

yes. even in transactional replication, this is how you initiatlize the subscriber. all future modifications is read by log reader agent for the published articles.

snapshot created by the transaction replication can be applied directly to the subscriber (bypassing distributor). I hope you wish to apply the snapshot to a subscriber which is different from the one using transaction replication..
snapshot contain schema creation scripts and table data (bcp'ed out). you can directly apply them on the target(subscriber).
