question regarding referenced views and replication order

You can update the view definition and hope that this updates the
dependencies correctly. If it doesn't you can use sp_addscriptexec to add
all the views in the correct order. Note that in SQL Server 2005 you can
specify the article order (@.processing_order) to get round this type of
issue.

Stefan,
replication of views and procs doesn't follow the usual paradigm in
replication. Changes to these programming objects aren't picked up by the
log-reader, so we have to resort to some sort of manual solution to pick up
changes to replicated objects and apply them which ever way we go about it.
The script to generate the view creation scripts could be based on the view
definition - in which case it'll always be upto date if you even need to run
the whole thing again. Ad-hoc changes can meanwhile be done using individual
views.
