Replication Report

Hi,
Is there anyway to provide weekly status report of the replication. Like --
1. Which tables are replicated.
2. When replication is not possible with reason.
Thanks in advance.
This shouldn't be too difficult to produce. Sysarticles and sysmergearticles
on the publisher will give the first part. The distribution database
(MSrepl_errors, MSdistribution_history, MSsnapshot_history etc) will give
the latter. Reporting Services for the report then you're done.

|||You'll probably want to bump your history retention up to something more
than a week - by default it hangs around for 3 days. To do this, right click
on Replication Monitor, select Distributor Properties, and then click on the
properties button. Change History Retention here.
