I have a database, let's call it Prod_1, and had originally set up transaction replication on it. I called this publication Prod_1_TL. Later it was decided that a once-a-day snapshot would be preferable, so that publication was deleted and I created Prod_1_TL.Prod_1_TL never disappeared from Replication Monitor. However, it wasn't a problem until just a couple of days ago when I could not stay connected to the distributor in RM (in this setup, the distributor and the publisher are the same server). Browsing around, I found that there is a stored procedure that I could run that would clear that right up, except that sp doesn't exist in SQL 2005, so I ended up deleting Prod_1_TL's entry in the MSpublications table as per another site. Now I am able to stay connected to the distributor, but the old publication is still there and I would like to get rid of it. Help!
