Remarks

The SubscriptionType property is a read-only property.

In Microsoft SQL Server 2005, all subscriptions are tracked at the Publisher. Anonymous is never returned.

Use TransPullSubscription or MergePullSubscription to create a pull subscription. For more information, see How to: Create a Pull Subscription (RMO Programming).

The SubscriptionType property can only be retrieved by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher, by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database, or by the user that created the subscription.

Retrieving the SubscriptionType property is equivalent to executing sp_helpsubscription or sp_helpmergesubscription.

The SubscriptionType property is available with Microsoft SQL Server 7.0, Microsoft SQL Server 2000, and Microsoft SQL Server 2005.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
