Applies To

DistributionDatabase Object

ReplicationSecurity Object

Syntax

object.StandardPassword [= value]

Part	Description
object	Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
value	String

Remarks

The StandardPassword property is evaluated only when the SQL-DMO object indicates that SQL Server Authentication will be used by the referenced replication component. Use the SecurityMode property of the SQL-DMO object to direct authentication mode selection.

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write for the ReplicationSecurity object. Write-only for the DistributionDatabase object.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetStandardPassword(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

HRESULT SetStandardPassword(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.
