Invalid Descriptor Index

I have a Sql Server 2000 SP3 Publisher that performs merge replication with a group of MSDE 2000 SP3 subscribers.
Everything was working fine. I had to make changes to the publication and reinit the subscribers. Some subscribers are working fine. Others are getting an error. The error is
The process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'.
The process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'.
(Source: Merge Replication Provider (Agent); Error number: -2147200999)
------
Invalid Descriptor Index
(Source: XXXXXXXX(Data source); Error number: 0)
------
Anyone know what might cause this? And the solution for it?
90 % of the failure to enumerat changes errors can be cleared by restarting the agent.
In your case the invalid descriptor index is unusual and points to an ODBC error. SQL Server replication uses ODBC to communicate between servers.
There are some reports that you can clear this error by rearranging your columns returned in your results set.
It sounds like this might be a bug.

I can't rearrange anything since its setup from replication itself. Its wierd because some subscribers to go through fine, others are failing with the error.
|||Is this error a transient error for these subscribers? Are these subscribers at the same MDAC, sp, hot fix level for that the successful subscribers are at?
