I tested it and it worked fine 2-3 times.  But somehow it has stopped working now.  When I check the Replication Monitor &amp;gt; Distributor to Subscriber History, I find the following error in all synchronizations.Command attempted:if @@trancount &amp;gt; 0 rollback tran(Transaction sequence number: 0x000003C3000023F8004400000001, Command ID: 1)Error messages:Cannot insert an explicit value into a timestamp column. Use INSERT with a column list to exclude the timestamp column, or insert a DEFAULT into the timestamp column. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 273)Get help: http://help/273Cannot insert an explicit value into a timestamp column. Use INSERT with a column list to exclude the timestamp column, or insert a DEFAULT into the timestamp column. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 273)Get help: http://help/273What could be the reason for this error?  It does not tell us in which internal operation this error occurs - neither any stack trace.  How can we trace such errors?I have several solutions for resolving this error but nothing has worked.  I removed subscriber and re-added it also.If anyone has faced similar issue before, please let me know solution.</description><pubDate>Fri, 21 Jan 2011 01:05:58 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>murtaza_tinwala</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
