Upgrading the Catalog Stored Procedures (OLE DB)

The Microsoft® OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (SQLOLEDB) uses a set of system stored procedures known as catalog stored procedures to obtain information from the Microsoft SQL Server™ system catalog. SQL Server installs the catalog stored procedures automatically when you install or upgrade SQL Server. The Instcat.sql file included with this provider includes minor updates to the catalog stored procedures. If this version of SQLOLEDB will be used against SQL Server version 6.5, the SQL Server system administrator must upgrade the catalog stored procedures on the earlier SQL Server installation by running Instcat.sql. Upgrading the catalog stored procedures does not affect the operations of SQL Server clients.
