Uwagi

sp_helparticledts is used in snapshot replication and transactional replication.

There are naming conventions, required by the replication agents, which must be followed when naming tasks in a replication Data Transformation Services (DTS) program. For custom tasks, such as an Execute SQL task, the name is a concatenated string consisting of the article name, a prefix, and an optional part. When writing the code, if you are unsure what the task names should be, the result set gives the task names that should be used.
