Remarks

The definitions of many SQL Server database components are implemented as records in SQL Server system tables. Within a system table, one column may be designated as an identifier. An identifier is an integer value that is unique for all rows in the table. Identifiers are assigned by SQL Server.

The ObjectID property represents a SQL Server component identifier and, by using the ItemByID method, provides an alternate method for selecting a specific object from a collection.
