Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	_Attribute.GetTypeInfo	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.)

Remarks

A provider should apply this attribute to a connection property when there are multiple property names that can refer to the same property value. It is used by the base DataConnectionProperties class to implement the InitializeSynonyms method, and allows you to change the property name to use when graphically creating connection properties.

Thread Safety

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