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 Text property exposes the Transact-SQL or other script that defines the referenced Microsoft SQL Server database object.
Syntax
object
.Text [=value]
Parts
- object
An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
- value
A string that satisfies the constraints on definition text for the referenced object
Data Type
String
Modifiable
Read/write when using a SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) object to create a SQL Server database object. Read-only when a SQL-DMO object references an existing database object.
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT GetText(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetText(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
Constraints apply to strings used to set the Text property. For example, the Text property of a Check object contains an expression that evaluates to TRUE or FALSE. For a Trigger object, the Text property contains a Transact-SQL statement that creates a trigger when run. For more information, see documentation for the applicable SQL-DMO object.
