'Usage
Dim instance As DtsProperty 
Dim value As DTSPropertyKind 

value = instance.PropertyKind
public DTSPropertyKind PropertyKind { get; }
public:
property DTSPropertyKind PropertyKind {
    DTSPropertyKind get ();

Property Value

Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSPropertyKind
A DTSPropertyKind enumeration.

Examples

This object is used in the DtsProperties collection, which contains information about each property in various objects in which it is implemented, including the Package object. The example below returns a DtsProperties collection for a package, and then iterates through the package properties, displaying several values, including PropertyKind.
