Hello.

I have a few questions about transactional replication usin OLE DB Provider:
I need to create transactional replication between MS SQL Server 2005 and MS Access, using OLE DB Provider. I have such provider installed on my system. Basicly I need to now how to install mechanism of replication. What steps should I make?

I will show you the way how I am trying to do it:
1) Create Linked server to Access database. If I test connection of this linked server it returns "success". And I can select data from Access database through this linked server. As I andrestand, it means that it is everything ok with linked server.
2) I didn't found any wat how to create subscribe heterogenious data base for publications using GUI.
I used such script, may be anyone see any mistakes?

use master
GO

-- Add GSDR User for synchronization
sp_addlogin @loginame = 'GSDR', @passwd = 'GSDR'
GO
sp_addsrvrolemember @loginame = 'GSDR', @rolename = 'sysadmin'

exec sp_adddistributor @distributor = @@servername
-- @password = N'GSDR'

-- set all related jobs to log to event log upon failure
use msdb
GO

declare @jobname varchar(255)
declare jobnames cursor for select name from sysjobs where category_id in (10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18)

open jobnames
fetch next from jobnames into @jobname

while (@@fetch_status <> -1)
begin
if (@@fetch_status <> -2)
begin
execute ('sp_update_job @job_name = ''' + @jobname + ''', @notify_level_eventlog = 2')
end
fetch next from jobnames into @jobname
end
close jobnames
deallocate jobnames


3) Finaly this script creates distripution, publication, subscriber... everythihg that needed for replication, as I think.
But if I look at replication monitor, look for details of my publication I can see that "Distribution" works fine (Pudlisher to Distributor History can show it), but if I look at "Distributor to Subscriber History" I can see a log of errors, like this "Error messages:
(Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 20085)
Get help: http://help/20085"

Is anyone can help me heare? It is very important for me.

I look forwar to hearing the answers, your fathfuly Bulat Nasyrov.
