I need to add a couple of columns to a table that is a part of a replication set. It is not a constraint coulumn or a part of any article filters and it allows NULL. I have a pretty good idea that I can run this --> ALTER TABLE tblPlanDomain ADD ReportWageES VARCHAR (100) NULL

and NOT force all my clients to reinitialize but I was hoping for some reassurance. Can anyone verify this one way or the other for me?

Thanks,
