EnumIdentityRangeInfo Method

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 EnumIdentityRangeInfo method returns a QueryResults object that enumerates identity range information about articles based on a table.

Syntax

object
.EnumIdentityRangeInfo( )
as 
QueryResults

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT EnumIdentityRangeInfo(LPSQLDMOQUERYRESULTS *ppResults);

Returns

A QueryResults object that contains one result set defined by these columns.

Column

Data type

Description

auto_identity_support

bit

If already replicated, whether an automatic identity range is assigned.

current_identity

big_int

Current identity value.

identity_increment

integer

Amount by which the identity value is incremented.

max_identity

big_int

Maximum boundary of the identity range.

next_starting_seed

big_int

If automatic identity range is enabled, indicates the starting point of next range.

publisher_range

big_int

Publisher identity range size.

replicated

bit

Whether the table is already replicated as an article in another publication.

subscriber_range

big_int

Subscriber identity range size.

threshold

integer

Identity range threshold percentage.

Remarks

A table may contain only one identity column. If adding the table to a new publication, it may be neither possible nor necessary to assign an identity range to the Publisher or Subscriber automatically. If the table is also used in other publications, EnumIdentityRangeInfo returns information about whether the identity range was assigned.

Note

If an application calls EnumIdentityRangeInfo 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.
