<para>Both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 make it possible for applications to determine the existence of SQL Server instances within the current network. The <see cref="T:System.Data.Sql.SqlDataSourceEnumerator" /> class exposes this information to the application developer, providing a <see cref="T:System.Data.DataTable" /> containing information about all the available servers. This returned table contains a list of server instances that matches the list provided when a user attempts to create a new connection, and on the <paramref name="Connection Properties" /> dialog box, expands the drop-down list containing all the available servers.</para>

<block subset="none" type="note">
<para>Due to the nature of the mechanism used by <see cref="T:System.Data.Sql.SqlDataSourceEnumerator" /> to locate data sources on a network, the method will not always return a complete list of the available servers, and the list might not be the same on every call. If you plan to use this function to let users select a server from a list, make sure that you always also supply an option to type in a name that is not in the list, in case the server enumeration does not return all the available servers. In addition, this method may take a significant amount of time to execute, so be careful about calling it when performance is critical.</para>
