Hinweise

The Remove method removes the publication and all publication metadata at the Publisher and Distributor. Use the Remove method passing a value of true to remove a publication when the Distributor is offline or cannot be accessed.

The Remove method can only be called by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.

Calling Remove is equivalent to executing sp_droppublication (Transact-SQL) or sp_dropmergepublication (Transact-SQL).

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.

    publication = new TransPublication();
    publication.ConnectionContext = conn;
    publication.Name = publicationName;

    // Delete the publication, if it exists and has no subscriptions.
