Remarks
The identity range size specifies the maximum number of new rows that can be inserted into an identity column in a table at a Publisher or Subscriber before another identity range must be allocated. Use the IdentityRangeThreshold property to control when an identity range must be allocated. The PublisherIdentityRangeSize property can be set larger or smaller than the SubscriberIdentityRangeSize property depending on the relative frequency in which new rows are inserted at the Publisher in relation to its Subscribers.
Prior to setting PublisherIdentityRangeSize, set AutoIdentityRange to TRUE.
Note If an application calls PublisherIdentityRangeSize on an instance of SQL Server version 7.0, the constant, SQLDMO_E_SQL80ONLY, and the message "This property or method requires Microsoft SQL Server 2000" are returned.
