SubscriptionName Property (Replication ActiveX)

The SubscriptionName property specifies a display name for the subscription. This name is used in the Windows Synchronization Manager user interface.

Important

Support has been dropped for creating subscriptions in Windows Synchronization. You can still synchronize subscriptions through Windows Synchronization Manager. For more information, see Windows Synchronization Manager.

Remarks

If SubscriptionName is not specified, a subscription name is generated using Subscriber name, Subscriber database, and publication.

The SubscriptionName property is not persisted. All subsequent merges will show the property to be formatted as subscribername**:**subscriberdatabase.

This is consistent with the way subscription names are shown in SQL Server Management Studio.
