MaximumErrorsBeforeAbort Property

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 MaximumErrorsBeforeAbort property specifies the error limit for a bulk copy operation.

Syntax

object.MaximumErrorsBeforeAbort [= value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

  • value
    A positive, long integer less than 65,535

Data Type

Long

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetMaximumErrorsBeforeAbort(LPLONG pRetVal);
HRESULT SetMaximumErrorsBeforeAbort(long NewValue);

Remarks

The default is 10, and a bulk-copy operation stops when ten errors occur. Setting the property to a value greater than 65,535 results in use of the maximum, 65,535. An attempt to set the MaximumErrorsBeforeAbort property to a value less than 1 causes use of the default.
