Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetSnapshotAgent(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetSnapshotAgent(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

Note

SQL Distributed Management Objects (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.
