Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetShortMonth(long nMonth, 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 ShortMonth property retrieves an abbreviated month name by ordinal value where January is represented as month 1. For example, a Language object referencing an installed SQL Server German language might return the string Okt when the property ShortMonth(10) is referenced.
