Distributed transactions

Your application can enlist a connection for distributed transactions by setting the Enlist connection string attribute to true, yes, or 1.

You should set the Pooling connection string attribute to true, yes, or 1 while working with distributed transactions.

ids_net_148.html#ids_net_148 includes an example of how to use distributed transactions with your application.

Distributed transactions are supported through the Microsoft™ Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC). The MS DTC components are required to call some unmanaged code, which can affect the level of security available and potentially degrade performance.
