TcpPort 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 TcpPort property specifies the TCP/IP Sockets Net-Libraries port number on an instance of Microsoft SQL Server.
Syntax
object.TcpPort [= value]
Parts
object
An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To listvalue
A string that contains the port number
Data Type

Modifiable
Read/write
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT GetTcpPort(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetTcpPort(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);
Remarks
To set the TcpPort property, you must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.
Important
Setting the TcpPort property changes registry settings, and it should be used with caution.
Note
If an application calls TcpPort on an instance of SQL Server version 7.0, the constant, SQLDMO_E_SQL80ONLY, and the message "This property or method requires Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or later" are returned.
