The CompatibilityLevel property can be set by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher. It can also be set by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.

Retrieving CompatibilityLevel is equivalent to executing sp_helpmergepublication.

Setting CompatibilityLevel is equivalent to executing sp_addmergepublication or sp_changemergepublication.

The CompatibilityLevel property is available with SQL Server only.

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