MergeArticle Object

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 MergeArticle object represents a table published as part of a merge publication.

Remarks

With the MergeArticle object, you can:

  • Add an article to a merge publication.

  • Change the properties of an existing merge article.

To add an article (table) to a merge publication

  1. Create a new MergeArticle object.

  2. Set the Name property.

  3. Set the SourceObjectName property to the name of a table.

  4. Set the SourceObjectOwner property to the owner of the table.

  5. Add the MergeArticle object to the MergeArticles collection of a connected MergePublication object.

To alter an existing article (table) of an existing merge publication

  1. Get a MergeArticle object from the MergeArticles collection of a connected MergePublication object.

  2. Use the BeginAlter method to mark the beginning of the changes.

  3. Set the MergeArticle properties to reflect the changes to the article.

  4. Use the DoAlter method to submit the changes to Microsoft SQL Server.

Note

The MergeArticle object is compatible with instances of SQL Server versions 7.0 and later. However, the MergeArticle2 object extends the functionality of the MergeArticle object for use with features that were introduced in SQL Server 2000.
