Replication says success, but tables not showing in EM?

Hello All,
I am trying to replicate data from a SQL Server (7.0) to another SQL
Server using a one-way immediate push subscription. After executing,
there are no errors in the Snapshot or Push agents, but two of the
tables are missing in the subscription database. Where did they go?
I can find the tables listed in the publication->articles tab and in
the snapshot logs on the publisher. The tables are also listed on the
subscriber database under 'Database Roles Properties' --> Permissions.
Thank You For Your Time And Help,
Nate
Hi Nate,
You may want to check whether subscriptions for the two missing tables were
really created by calling sp_helpsubscription at the publisher. If not,
manually add them by calling sp_addsubscriptions with explicit article names
and rerun snapshot + distribution agents.

|||Everything looks as it should after calling sp_helpsubscription - the
two tables are listed.
|||This looks really strange. If you check the history messages of the snapshot
agent, do you see files for the two missing tables generated? And if you
check the distribution agent history, do you see that the files for the two
missing tables applied? If the tables are relatively small, you may be able
to fix things up by reinitializing the subscription, regenerate the snapshot
and reapply it. You may also want to watch out for processes outside of
replication that may have dropped the tables at the subscriber. What are the
sync_type values of subscriptions to the missing tables?

Replication monitor error but no error?!

Hello again,
The root node of my SQL Server replication monitor is showing a red X but
all the actual replications listed underneath are OK. What might be causing
this and how can I get rid of it! My DBA is getting twitchy...
Thanks
Will
If you run profiler and navigate to the replication monitor, you should see
why this is happening. The replication monitor gets its info from
tempdb.dbo.MSreplication_agent_status and running
sp_MSload_replication_status refreshes this table. As restarting the SQL
Server Service causes the tempdb to be recreated from the model database,
this also removes the problem.
