HasRowVersionColumn Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The HasRowVersionColumn property specifies whether a table has a column named msrepl_tran_version.

Syntax

object
.HasRowVersionColumn

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

  • value
    TRUE or FALSE

Data Type

Boolean

Modifiable

Read-only

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetHasRowVersionColumn(LPBOOL pRetVal);

Remarks

Microsoft SQL Server requires that all articles in a transactional or snapshot publication that allow updatable subscriptions contain a unique identifier column named msrepl_tran_version, which is used to track changes to the replicated data. The HasRowVersionColumn property returns TRUE if a table already has a column named msrepl_tran_version. If HasRowVersionColumn returns FALSE, the msrepl_tran_version column is added to tables in transactional or snapshot publications that allow updatable subscriptions.

Note

If an application calls HasRowVersionColumn on an instance of SQL Server version 7.0, FALSE is returned.
