Examples

This adds a reference to an open Visual Basic, Visual C#, or Visual J# project, and it then removes it. To run this example as an add-in, see How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples.

The default paths for the added reference is: <installation root>\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\SDK\Assemblies. Replace <file path> in the example with this or another appropriate file path.
