Restore2 Object
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The Restore2 object defines the behavior of a RESTORE statement for a Microsoft SQL Server database or log and extends the functionality of the Restore object.
Remarks
The Restore2 object extends the functionality of the Restore object for use with features that were introduced in SQL Server 2000. It also inherits the properties and methods of the Restore object. With the Restore2 object, you can:
Retrieve or specify a backup or media set password for SQL Server 2000 and later.
Maintain replication configuration settings during a restore operation.
The properties of the Restore2 object may not be compatible with instances of SQL Server version 7.0 or earlier. For more information about using the Restore2 object in an application that also runs with an instance of SQL Server 7.0, refer to the Remarks section for specific properties. For more information, see Programming Extended SQL-DMO Objects.
