Appendix B: Schema Rowsets
The CATALOGS rowset identifies the physical attributes associated with catalogs accessible from the DBMS. For some systems, such as Microsoft Access, there may be only one catalog. For Microsoft SQL Server, this rowset would enumerate all catalogs (databases) defined in the system database.
The CATALOGS rowset contains the following columns.
Column name | Type indicator | Description |
CATALOG_NAME | DBTYPE_WSTR | Catalog name. Cannot be NULL. |
DESCRIPTION | DBTYPE_WSTR | Human-readable description of the table. |
Default Sort Order: CATALOG_NAME
