Hello Michał,

Thanks for the reply. I suspected as much, I was just wondering if there
was an easy fix that didn't involve dropping the entire subscription and
having to re-do all the table because of that. Guess my only option is to
remove the affected tables from the publisher before the patch, refresh
subscription, do the patch, recreate the tables on the subscriber and do
the sync for only those tables.

I will look in to your suggestion.

Regards,
Koen De Groote
