Publishing only some columns in a table

You can create a publication that contains all the rows, but only some of the columns of a table from Sybase Central or by listing the columns in the CREATE PUBLICATION statement.

Note

  • If you create two publications that include the same table with different column subsets, then you may only create a synchronization subscription for one of them.

  • An article must include all the primary key columns in the table.
