MTS RemoteComponents Collection

[This product will work only on Windows NT 4.0 versions and earlier. For Windows 2000 and later, see COM+ (Component Services).]

Use the Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) Explorer on a client computer to add remote component entries that see components installed on a remote server. This is often described as "pulling" remote component information from a server. Configuring remote components automatically copies proxy/stub DLLs and type libraries from the server to the client. The RemoteComponents collection supports the Remove method. This collection does not support the Add method on the CatalogCollection object. Instead you must call GetUtilInterface to obtain the RemoteComponentUtil object in order to add new remote components.

The following table provides a list of the properties supported by the CatalogObjects within the RemoteComponents collection.
