If you set up replication using the wizard and you choose to have tables replicated, are there any indexes (other than the primary keys) replicated? It appears not. Is there something that I missed in the wizard that would have replicated the indexes?

How can I easily get the same indexes on my replicated database?

Thank you for your support.

By default, the nonclustered indexes are not copied over. You can enable this though when you setup the publication. It's on the screen where you select the articles to add.
