How to: Construct a DataType Object by Using the Default Constructor in Visual Basic .NET
This section describes how to create instances of data types by using the default constructor in Visual Basic .NET.
The code example shows how to use the default constructor to create instances of data types that are based on different SQL Server data types. The properties are then used to specify the data type.
Note The UserDefinedType, UserDefinedDataType, and XML types all require a name value to identify the object.
Constructing a DataType object using the default constructor
Start Visual Studio 2005.
From the File menu, select New Project. The New Project dialog box appears.
In the Project Types pane, select Visual Basic. In the Templates pane, select Console Application.
(Optional) In the Name box, type the name of the new application.
Click OK to load the Visual Basic console application template.
On the Project menu, select Add Reference item. The Add Reference dialog box appears. Select Browse and locate the SMO assemblies in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\SDK\Assemblies folder. Select the following files:
Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum.dll
On the View menu, click Code.-Or-Select the Module1.vb window to display the code window.
In the code, before any declarations, type the following Imports statements to qualify the types in the SMO namespace:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common
Insert the code that follows this procedure into the main program.
Run and build the application.

'Declare and create a DataType object variable.
Dim dt As DataType
dt = New DataType
'Define the data type by setting the SqlDataType property.
dt.SqlDataType = SqlDataType.VarChar
'The VarChar data type requires a value for the MaximumLength property.
dt.MaximumLength = 100
