The Grant method assigns a table permission or a list of permissions to one or more Microsoft® SQL Server™ users or roles.
| Table Object | View Object |
object.Grant( Privilege , GranteeNames , [ ColumnNames ] ,
[ GrantGrant ] , [ AsRole ] )
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| Privilege | Long integer specifying one or more table permissions as described in Settings. |
| GranteeNames | SQL-DMO multistring listing users or roles. |
| ColumnNames | SQL-DMO multistring listing column names within the table or view. When used, the specified privilege is extended only to the columns named. |
| GrantGrant | When True, the grantee(s) specified are granted the ability to execute the GRANT statement referencing the table or view. When False (default), the ability to extend permission is not granted. |
| AsRole | String identifying a role to which the connected user belongs as described in Remarks. |
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SQLDMOPriv_AllObjectPrivs | 63 | Grant all permissions on the table |
| SQLDMOPriv_Delete | 8 | Grant permission to execute the DELETE statement referencing the table |
| SQLDMOPriv_Insert | 2 | Grant permission to execute the INSERT statement referencing the table |
| SQLDMOPriv_References | 32 | Grant permission to reference the table in statements implementing declarative referential integrity |
| SQLDMOPriv_Select | 1 | Grant permission to execute the SELECT statement referencing the table |
| SQLDMOPriv_Update | 4 | Grant permission to execute the UPDATE statement referencing the table |
When a user is a member of more than a single role, the user can have permission to grant access to a table or view under one role and not under another. In this case, SQL Server security mechanisms prevent execution of the Grant method on the Table or View object referencing the database object. Use the AsRole argument to specify the role under which permission to execute the grant exists.
Note Granting permissions to database users and roles by using the Grant method of the Table or View object requires appropriate privilege. The SQL Server login used for SQLServer object connection must be granted the ability to execute GRANT referencing the database object, the owner of the database object, or a member of a role with greater privilege.
