ReplicationDatabase.EnabledTransPublishing Property
Gets or sets whether the database is enabled for transactional or snapshot publishing or not.
Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo (in microsoft.sqlserver.rmo.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Property EnabledTransPublishing As Boolean
public bool EnabledTransPublishing { get; set; }
public:
property bool EnabledTransPublishing {
bool get ();
void set (bool value);
}
/** @property */
public boolean get_EnabledTransPublishing ()
/** @property */
public void set_EnabledTransPublishing (boolean value)
public function get EnabledTransPublishing () : boolean
public function set EnabledTransPublishing (value : boolean)
Property Value
A Boolean value that specifies whether the database is enabled for transaction or snapshot publishing or not. If true, the database is enabled for transactional or snapshot publishing. If false, the database is not enabled for transactional or snapshot publishing.
Remarks
The EnabledTransPublishing property can only be set by members of the sysadmin fixed server role.
The EnabledTransPublishing property can be retrieved by the sysadmin fixed server role on the server, by the db_owner fixed database role on the replication database, and by a user in the public access list (PAL) for a publication published from the replication database.
Setting EnabledTransPublishing is equivalent to executing sp_replicationdboption (Transact-SQL).
Getting EnabledTransPublishing is equivalent to executing sp_helpreplicationdboption (Transact-SQL).
The EnabledTransPublishing property is available with SQL Server 7.0, SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server 2005.
This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.
Example
This example enables transactional and snapshot publishing on AdventureWorks.

string distributionDbName = "distribution";
string publisherName = publisherInstance;

// Create a connection to the server using Windows Authentication.
ServerConnection conn = new ServerConnection(publisherName);
try
{
// Connect to the server acting as the Distributor
// and local Publisher.
conn.Connect();
// Define the distribution database at the Distributor,
// but do not create it now.
distributionDb = new DistributionDatabase(distributionDbName, conn);

distributionDb.HistoryRetention = 120;
// Set the Distributor properties and install the Distributor.
// This also creates the specified distribution database.
