Catalog object (ADOX)

Applies to: Access 2013, Office 2013

Contains collections (Tables, Views, Users, Groups, and Procedures) that describe the schema catalog of a data source.

With the properties and methods of a Catalog object, you can:

• Create a new catalog with the Create method.

• Determine the owners of the objects in a Catalog with the GetObjectOwner and SetObjectOwner methods.
