LoginSecure 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 LoginSecure property directs authentication mode use when the application attempts to use the Connect method of a SQLServer object to connect to a server.

Syntax

object.LoginSecure [=value]

Parts

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

  • value
    TRUE or FALSE

Data Type

Boolean

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetLoginSecure(LPBOOL pRetVal);
HRESULT SetLoginSecure(BOOL NewValue);

Remarks

If TRUE, an attempt to connect to the SQLServer object uses Windows Authentication.

If FALSE, an attempt to connect the SQLServer object uses SQL Server Authentication. The Login and Password properties are used to specify authentication information.

Note

The recommended method for connecting to an instance of Microsoft SQL Server is Windows Authentication.
