ReplicationTables Collection

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 ReplicationTables collection contains ReplicationTable objects that reference the user-defined tables of a Microsoft SQL Server database.

Remarks

SQL Server replication publications and subscriptions can be used to automate replication of user data. To simplify replication configuration when using SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO), SQL-DMO implements the ReplicationTables and ReplicationStoredProcedures collections, which list user-defined tables and stored procedures.

With the ReplicationTables collection, you can enumerate those tables that can participate in replication as a source for article data.

When using the Item method, the ReplicationTables collection supports member identification using either name or ordinal reference syntax. For example:

Set oReplicationTable = oReplicationDatabase.oReplicationTables("[Order Details]")

Or:

Set oReplicationTable = oReplicationDatabase.oReplicationTables(3)

Additionally, when using the table name to select an object from the collection, the Item method allows owner name qualification. For example:

Set oReplicationTable = oReplicationDatabase.oReplicationTables("Orders", "dbo")
