LastDistributionSummaryTime 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 LastDistributionSummaryTime property returns the date and time when the last synchronization summary text was logged by Distribution Agent.
