For information on creating, renaming, or removing a foreign computer, see the MSMQ Administrator's Guide.

foreign queue

A queue that resides on a computer that does not run MSMQ (a foreign computer).

ForeignCNGUID

Identifier of the foreign CN where the MSMQ connector is located. The CN identifier is generated by MSMQ when the CN is created.

For information on CNs, see the Microsoft Message Queue Server Administrator's Guide.

format name

Used to specify a queue when making calls to several API functions.

The queue's format name is not an MSMQ queue property. It is a unique name for the queue that is generated by MSMQ when the queue is created or generated later by the application. MSMQ never stores the format name of a queue for later reference.
