    Thank you both for your replies! I thought that database snapshots might be the same as the snapshots used for replication but wasn't sure.

    You're welcome. I guessed that's where you were getting confused.

    Can the snapshot for replication be made by the replication wizard.

    When you setp through the wizard there is an option to have the agent generate the snapshot immediately or later. Go through this first in your test system to ensure you're comfortable with the steps
