replication from SQL 2000 to SQL 7.0

  • Hi all,

    I need to replicate views from SQL Server 2000 database to SQL SErver 7.0.

    I have two questions:

    1. Can do replicate the views between the two?

    2. In order to replicate the view, will I need to replicate the table(s)

    that the view references as well (I think so, but I am double checking)?

    Thank you,

    Sang

  • Yes and yes. Selecting a view just sends over the definition of the view, not the data the view represents. Changes to the view after the initial snapshot are not replicated. SQL2K to SQL7 works fine.

  • Also,

    You will want to use Snapshot replication for Views, SP's, and Functions(SQL 2K only) as you can simply update the snapshot and replicate it out.
