FilterClause Property (SQL-DMO)

The FilterClause property specifies a Transact-SQL WHERE clause used to filter row data published in the article.

Applies To

Syntax

object.FilterClause [= value]

Part	Description
object	Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
Value	String specifying a Transact-SQL expression valid as the WHERE clause of a SELECT statement

Remarks

Filtering and horizontal partitioning are two methods that reduce the row data scope of an article. Either method, or both, may be used. The FilterClause property specifies that a row filter is applied to determine available data for an article.

For more information about row data availability in articles, see Defining an Article.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetFilterClause(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

HRESULT SetFilterClause(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

Note SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference by using SysFreeString.
