I am developing an application that uses a db that is setup for replication between two servers. I am noticing that some of the data in particular columns on random records is missing. I am quite confident that the insert commands are inserting data correctly as I have tested this extensively.
I am wondering if it is possible that the replication setup could be missing some columns when replicating? Usually it is just an empty string inserted rather than NULL value. I did not setup the replication, so I am not sure how to test this.
Has anyone experienced this before or knows what the cause of this might be?

Thanks

Is replication using stored procedures or INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE statements? This is configured when you setup replication. If using stored procedures, I would look at the stored procedures to see if someone has modified them and is not passing the columns. If using straight DML statements, I would suggest running SQL Profiler to determine what the problem is.
