SMO Syntax Conventions

SQL Server Management Objects (SMO) typographical conventions are based on those used in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET reference materials.

Convention	Used for
UPPERCASE	Transact-SQL statements, macro names, and terms used at the operating system level; file names in text.
monospace	Sample command lines and program code.
italic	Variables in text, formulas in text, or terms defined in text. In syntax, italic letters indicate placeholders for information you supply.
bold	SMO objects, events, methods, or properties; programming terms in text.
