Remarks
SQL Server merge publications cannot be created in a database currently configured as a target for a local or anonymous merge Subscriber-originated (pull) subscription. The AllowMergePublication property returns FALSE when local or anonymous merge pull subscriptions target the referenced database.
When using SQL-DMO to create merge publications, remove all local or anonymous pull subscriptions targeting the database by using the Remove method of the MergePullSubscription object, then create the publication. Re-establish local or anonymous pull subscriptions after successful creation of the publication.
