Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo (in microsoft.sqlserver.rmo.dll)

'Declaration
Public Sub Create
public void Create ()

Remarks

The Create method can only be called by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.

Calling Create is equivalent to executing sp_addsubscription or sp_addmergesubscription.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Example

This example creates a push subscription to a transactional publication.

// Define the Publisher, publication, and databases.
string publicationName = "AdvWorksProductTran";
string publisherName = publisherInstance;
string subscriberName = subscriberInstance;
string subscriptionDbName = "AdventureWorksReplica";
string publicationDbName = "AdventureWorks";

//Create a connection to the Publisher.
ServerConnection conn = new ServerConnection(subscriberName);

// Create the objects that we need.
TransPublication publication;
TransSubscription subscription;

try
{
    // Connect to the Publisher.
    conn.Connect();

    // Ensure that the publication exists and that 
    // it supports push subscriptions.
    publication = new TransPublication();
    publication.Name = publicationName;
    publication.DatabaseName = publicationDbName;
    publication.ConnectionContext = conn;

    if (publication.IsExistingObject)
    {
        if ((publication.Attributes & PublicationAttributes.AllowPush) == 0)
        {
            publication.Attributes |= PublicationAttributes.AllowPush;
        }

        // Define the push subscription.
        subscription = new TransSubscription();
        subscription.ConnectionContext = conn;

        // Specify the Windows login credentials for the Distribution Agent job.
        subscription.SynchronizationAgentProcessSecurity.Login = winLogin;

        // continuously, but in this case we only want to synchronize on demand.
        subscription.AgentSchedule.FrequencyType = ScheduleFrequencyType.OnDemand;
 
        // Create the push subscription.
