Incomplete Destination Selection: Please Enter Table Name

ID: Q180394

The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Host Data Replicator, version 1.0 BUG #: WINDOWS NT:196 (1.0)

SYMPTOMS

If you create a subscription while the destination connection is down, you will receive an error. The error occurs when you select the destination. Host Data Replicator tries to fill in the destination table information.

After the destination connection is resolved, backing up to the Criteria dialog box and then moving forward to the Destination dialog box will not update the destination table information. If the destination table information is not updated when you click the Next button, you will receive the following error message: 

   Please Enter A Table Name

CAUSE

The Next button in the Criteria dialog box does not request destination table information from the destination system.

WORKAROUND

There are two ways to request destination table information.

After the destination table information is filled in, you will be able to continue creating the subscription by clicking the Next button.
