Remarks

The definitions of many SQL Server database, agent, and replication components are implemented as records in SQL Server system tables. Within a system table, one column may be designated as an identifier. An identifier is a value that is unique for all rows in the table. Identifiers are assigned by SQL Server.

The ID property represents a SQL Server component identifier and, by using the ItemByID method, provides an alternate method for selecting a specific SQL-DMO object from its containing collection.

The ID property of the ReplicationTable2 object is designed to allow an application to retrieve a table object id. The ID property can be retrieved using both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server version 7.0.
