added article to current transactional repl. How to replicate additional article?

Hi, I already have transactional replication setup between two servers
(production server to reporting server).
I have created a new table witha primary key and have added this table as
an article to the publication.
How can i get my setup to take an initial snapshot of the table and apply it
to the reporting server?
Any help most appreciated!
thanks
John
John,
you will need to run the snapshot agent then synchronize. The whole process
from start to finish is:
exec sp_addarticle @.publication = 'tTestFNames'
, @.article = 'tEmployees'
, @.source_table = 'tEmployees'
exec sp_addsubscription @.publication = 'tTestFNames'
, @.article = 'tEmployees'
, @.subscriber = 'RSCOMPUTER'
, @.destination_db = 'testrep'
Start snapshot agent, start distribuition agent.

|||Thanks Paul,
Are you saying that I have to take a snapshot of the whole database all over
again?
I thought I could take a snapshot of just the article that has been newely
added to the publication?
In actual fact, the 'Last Action' column on my agent (subsicriber' is saying
"The initial snapshot for article 'myTable' is not yet available"
Many thanks!

if you add a new table and subscription to that table, running the snapshot
agent won't create a complete snapshot - just the new article.

Add Article To Trans Rep

Greetings again,
I am trying to add a table to a publication that already has a subscriber and have that table replicate to the subscriber.
2 servers, win2000, SQL 2000 all sp's applied.
1 server is the publisher and the 2nd is both the distributor and subscriber.
I went through the publication's properties page (em-replication-right click- properties) and added the table to the published articles list.
Then on the good advice of Paul Ibson in an earlier post to this newsgroup I created a new snapshot of the table and had
the dist. agent apply it. All went well.
However, new data in the table is not being replicated.
I've exhausted BOL and the web searches. Any recommendations as to the exact process I should follow would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
Joe,
have you run the distribution agent? Run sp_browsereplcmds in the
distribution database to see if your new rows are waiting there. If they are
then just running the distribution agent will fix it. If not, then perhaps
the log reader is disabled?
HTH,
Paul Ibison
