Properties

	Name	Description
	AuthenticationInfoCollection	Gets a table which contains the authentication labels used to populate the simple view of the connection dialog box. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	Owner	Gets or sets a value to pass the owner handle to the child windows.
	RequestedPropertySize	Gets the size that the custom user control needs to render correctly. This is used by both the advanced view of the connection dialog box and the New Server Registration dialog box to ensure that they expose enough screen space for the whole control to be visible. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	ServerGroupName	Gets the name of the server group root node for the server type. Used in the Registered Servers user interface. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	ServerInstanceName	Gets the instance name of the server. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	ServerType	Gets the GUID for the server type that is exposed to the user in the Server type combo box. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	ServerTypeName	Gets the string that is exposed to the user in the Server type combo box. (Inherited from IServerType.)
	SupportsCustomBrowseAction	Gets a value indicating whether the instance of this server type wants to specify custom action when the user selects browse action in the server combo.
	SupportsCustomNewDatabaseAction	Gets a value indicating whether the server name combo on the Login tab should contain new database action option.
	SupportsUserNameNotion	Gets a value indicating whether the user name combo on the Login tab should be enabled. If not, the user name doesn't apply to this server type.
