A String value specifying the name of the station to be opened.

The peer access of the station. The values can be combined.
Value | Description | Mnemonic |
1 | Read | MCM_PA_READ |
2 | Write | MCM_PA_WRITE |
4 | Delete | MCM_PA_DELETE |
7 | All | MCM_PA_ALL_ACCESS |
Return Values
Returns a Channel object.
Example
NSChannelMgr.Connect "LocalHost"
Dim Stations
Set Stations = NSChannelMgr.Channels
' Create station "OHlive", give other servers read-only access
Stations.Open "OHlive", 1
Remarks
The peer access determines which permissions other administrative clients have. For example, opening a stream with delete access allows other clients to delete the stream. These permissions are reset when the current connection is closed.
It is possible to create a station without a name by specifying an empty string as the name. However, a nameless station cannot be edited in the Windows Media Station service administration application. It can be deleted in the administration application, or by using the Channel.Close method.
