Microsoft Jet and Replication Objects

RetentionPeriod Property

Indicates how many days to keep replication histories.

Settings and Return Values

Sets or returns an Integer value ranging from 5 to 32,000, which represents a number of days.

Remarks

The RetentionPeriod property specifies the amount of time, measured in days, that a replica set retains details of deleted records, schema changes, and other system-specific information. If the database was made replicable with ADO, RDO, or the Replication Manger, the default value is 60.

If the database was made replicable with Access, the default value is 1000.

This property can only be set on a design master. An error will occur if the ReplicaType is not jrTypeDesignMaster.
