TransSubscription.SecureDtsPackagePassword Property

Definition

Sets the password (as a SecureString object) used to run the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Data Transformation Services (DTS) package.

public:
 property System::Security::SecureString ^ SecureDtsPackagePassword { System::Security::SecureString ^ get(); void set(System::Security::SecureString ^ value); };
public System.Security.SecureString SecureDtsPackagePassword { get; set; }
member this.SecureDtsPackagePassword : System.Security.SecureString with get, set
Public Property SecureDtsPackagePassword As SecureString

Property Value

A SecureString value.

Remarks

The SecureDtsPackagePassword property provides additional security for the password while it is stored in memory and should be used instead of DtsPackagePassword.

When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at run time. If you must store credentials, use the cryptographic services provided by the Microsoft Windows .NET Framework.

The password is never returned by SecureDtsPackagePassword.

The SecureDtsPackagePassword property can only be set by members of the sysadmin fixed server role or by members of the db_owner fixed database role.

Setting SecureDtsPackagePassword is equivalent to executing sp_addpushsubscription_agent (Transact-SQL) or sp_change_subscription_properties (Transact-SQL).
