'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property CreationName As String
public string CreationName { get; }

Property Value
A String that contains the creation name. The name may be the fully qualified assembly name (for managed assemblies), it may be the ProgID or CLSID (for COM DLLs), or it may be one of the STOCK monikers such as STOCK:FILE that is used to create the connection manager for a file.
Example
The following code example creates an Application object, iterates through the default connections on the computer and then lists the properties of each connection. In this example, the CreationName is shown as "DTS.ConnectionManagerFile.1".

using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;
namespace ConnInfoTest
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Application dtsApplication = new Application();
ConnectionInfos connectionInfos = dtsApplication.ConnectionInfos;
foreach (ConnectionInfo connInfo in connectionInfos)
{
Console.WriteLine(connInfo.ConnectionContact);
Console.WriteLine(connInfo.ConnectionType);
Console.WriteLine(connInfo.CreationName);
Console.WriteLine(connInfo.Description);
