Microsoft Jet and Replication Objects
Uniquely identifies the design master in a replica set.
Settings and Return Values
Sets or returns a Variant value that uniquely identifies the design master in a replica set (a GUID). This property is automatically set when the design master is created. The default value is an empty string ("").
Remarks
A design master can set one of its replicas to be the new design master. A replica can make itself the new design master, but it cannot make a different replica the design master.
Under extreme circumstances — for example, if the design master is erased or corrupted — you can set this property at the current replica. However, setting this property at a replica when there is already another design master in the set might partition your replica set into two irreconcilable sets, and prevent any further synchronization of data.
This property can only be read if the database is replicable. An error will occur if the ReplicaType is jrRepTypeNotReplicable and the user attempts to read or set this property.
