Hello Could any one clear my doubts

1. Why it is necessary to have a primary key for a table in order to publish.
2. After setting up transactional replication can we add another table at the publisher side.If it is possible how to replicate that table.

1. it's for transactional replication only, sql uses key to locate rows in the table to apply transaction.
2. yes, need restart snapshot after adding table.

In 2005, Restarting snapshot doesn't have to create snapshot for whole articles.
