Publisher Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The Publisher property specifies an instance of Microsoft SQL Server used as a source of replicated data for a Subscriber-initiated subscription.

Syntax

object
.Publisher [= value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • value
    A string that identifies an instance of SQL Server by name

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write when using the SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) object to create a subscription.

Read-only when the object references an existing subscription.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetPublisher(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal)
HRESULT SetPublisher(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue)

Note

SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Applies To:

MergePullSubscription Object

TransPullSubscription Object
