Chong writes "I try to setup transactional replication(TR). The environment as below:

3 locations: HQ1, Regional Office2, Branch3.

- I setup the Publisher and distributor at Branch3. The user at Branch3 can update the publication.
- The Regional Office2 SQL Server will subscribe the Publication from Branch3.
- At the Regional Office2, I want to publish the database subscribed above to let the HQ1 subscribe.
- I face problem. I can't publish the database for TR, because the Primary key is dissapear.

OS = W2K Server SP2
SQL = SQL2000 SP2

Questions:
1. How can I recover the lost primary key at Regional Office2 ?
2. IS there any other better solution/design ? The reason we need REgional Office because we do not want all the branches replication direct to HQ at the same time.

Thanks.
