ShortMonths 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 ShortMonths property returns a SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) multistring containing a list of month name abbreviations for a language.

Syntax

object.ShortMonths

Parts

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

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read-only

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetShortMonths(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

Note

SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

The list is ordered from month 1 (January) through month 12 (December). Month names are represented as three-character abbreviations.
