EOF transactional replication

Hi. I am going out of my mind trying to get transactional
replication working.
Currently the snapshot completes successfully, but I keep
receiving the following error when the initial snapshot
is being applied:
String data, right truncation
(Source: SERVER01 (ODBC); Error number: 22001)
---
String data, right truncation
(Source: ODBC SQL Server Driver(ODBC); Error number:
22001)
---
Unexpected EOF encountered in BCP data-file
(Source: ODBC SQL Server Driver (ODBC); Error number:
S1000)
I have added columns to both the source and destination
to make sure that are sequenced and match perfectly (data
types and null values - everything I can think of)
Using SEM I have been able to use the DTS Export/Import
Wizard to Import into the destination table without any
problems.
Does anybody know what could be causing this error and
how I can fix it.
Also I would really like to see the bcp out snaphot file
to view the contents. How can this been done? Do I need
to add any parameters to the bcp file?
I am at a complete loss... does anyone know how to fix
this, or what could possibly be causing the problem?
Thanks,

What level of MDAC are you on? Update to the latest MDAC version and see
how you go.
Hope this helps,

Windows 2000

You sure this could be the problem?
If so, why?
Thanks,

Hi Marcy,
As a full time support professional, my job is to make sure that we've
covered all possibilities. I have seen mismatched or outdated MDAC files
causing this error so I pass this info to you.
There is definitely something that's corrupting your data when you do a
synch. Synch is just bcp out and bcp in behind the covers. Do you
experience the same prob when you do the bcp operations manually?
Hope this helps,

SQL Server support|||Might be a stoopid question, but...
Am I suppose to bcp out to a .txt file and then bcp in the .txt file into the table. Or is there a smarter way for me to test the bcp option manually?
Thanks!
