SQL-DMO multistring identifying one or more filegroups by name

HRESULT GetDatabaseFileGroups(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

HRESULT SetDatabaseFileGroups(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

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

Setting DatabaseFileGroups directs backup or restore processing to include only those filegroups listed.

Set DatabaseFileGroups to an empty string to reset processing and target the entire database.
