TypeOf 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 TypeOf property returns an enumerated value identifying a kind of SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) object. For example, a Backup object returns SQLDMOObj_Backup if the object.TypeOfproperty is queried.
