Item Method

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 Item method extracts a member from a SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) container object such as the Databases collection or the NameList object.

Syntax

object
.Item(
Name | Position ) as Object

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • Name | Position
    Either a string that identifies an object by Microsoft SQL Server component name or a long integer that specifies an ordinal location in the container

Returns

A reference to the object extracted.

Remarks

In general, SQL-DMO supports container member dereferencing, using either a string naming an item, or an ordinal position for an item. Some SQL-DMO containers support additional restrictions to identify items where component name does not offer unique identification. Other containers do not support component name as an argument for the Item method at all.

For more information about support for Item, see documentation for a specific container object.

Applies To:

All collection and list objects
