SYMPTOMS
When you update a row at a replication subscriber that is running Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition (SQL Server CE) 2.0 and the updated row is involved in merge replication, the update of the row may initiate a partition change in the publication. If you later try to synchronize the data, the synchronization may fail.
