Return Value

A DataTable object value that contains a list of tables that can be accessed on the linked server. The table describes the different columns of the returned DataTable.

Column	Data type	Description
COLUMN_SIZE	Int32	The number of significant digits in the column. The return value for the PRECISION column is in base 10.
BUFFER_LENGTH	Int32	The transfer size of the data to and from the column.
DECIMAL_DIGITS	Int32	The number of digits to the right of the decimal point.
NUM_PREC_RADIX	Int32	The base for numeric data types.
NULLABLE	Int32	The nullability of the column. 1 = NULL is possible. 0 = NOT NULL.
REMARKS	String	This field always returns NULL.
COLUMN_DEF	String	The default value of the column.
SQL_DATA_TYPE	Int32	The value of the SQL data type as it appears in the TYPE field of the descriptor. This column is the same as the DATA_TYPE column, except for the DateTime and SQL-92 interval data types. This column always returns a value.
SQL_DATETIMEE_SUB	Int32	The subtype code for DateTime and SQL-92 interval data types. For other data types, this column returns NULL.
CHAR_OCTET_LENGTH	Int32	The maximum length in bytes of a character or integer data type column. For all other data types, this column returns NULL.
ORDINAL_POSITION	Int32	The ordinal position of the column in the table. The first column in the table is 1. This column always returns a value.
IS_NULLABLE	String	The nullability of the column in the table. ISO rules are followed to determine nullability. An ISO SQL-compliant DBMS cannot return an empty string. YES = Column can include NULLS. NO = Column cannot include NULLS. This column returns a zero-length string if nullability is unknown. The value returned for this column is different from the value returned for the NULLABLE column.
SS_DATA_TYPE	Int32	The ordinal position of the column in the table. The first column in the table is 1. This column always returns a value.
