Will updating a column size on the Oracle publisher table require a publication drop and recreate?

Hello,

There's a column on the oracle publisher side that needs to be change to a char(50) from a char(2).  Do I need to drop the publication and re-create it?  I'm know I will need to update the current size on the SQL table as well.  I looked at this article http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152499.aspx and it doesn't say anything about modifying datatypes.  Under 'Making Changes to a published object', it states the following:   

The following actions require you to drop the publication, perform the operation, and then recreate the publication:

  • Truncating a published table.

  • Renaming a published table.

  • Adding a column to a published table.

  • Dropping or modifying a column that is published for replication.

  • Performing non-logged operations.

 It says nothing about modifying datatypes.  Anyone comes across this before?
