Replication Component Programming API

Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 includes a set of replication objects in addition to the replication objects found in SQL-DMO. These objects include:

• The Replication Distributor Interface, which enables you to programmatically implement and manage heterogeneous transactional replication, in conjunction with third-party programs that can perform change tracking at heterogeneous data sources.
  
  
• Microsoft ActiveX® controls that allow you to provide the functionality of the Distribution Agent or the Merge Agent in custom programs.
