Remarks

If you delete a notification class, Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Notification Services drops the table for the notification class when you update the application. This deletes any data the table might contain.

If you rename a notification class, Notification Services creates a new notification class and deletes the old notification class.

Example

The following example shows a complete definition for a notification class. The notification class provides stock information to subscribers via email over the SMTP protocol.
