fn_listextendedproperty

Post by Javan_Soft » Wed 12 May 2010 11:32

Hi
I write this

QAskTemp.SQL.Text:='SELECT objname, CONVERT(Varchar(100), [value]) AS [OutPut] FROM ::fn_listextendedproperty(NULL, ''user'', '''', ''table'', '+QuotedStr(SecTable.Items[Index])+', ''Column'', NULL) A WHERE (name = ''MS_Description'')';

and the SDAC (in unit OLEDBAccess)says
TableName cannot be empty

I Change it to

QAskTemp.SQL.Text:='SELECT objname, CONVERT(Varchar(100), [value]) AS [OutPut] FROM [::fn_listextendedproperty](NULL, ''user'', '''', ''table'', '+QuotedStr(SecTable.Items[Index])+', ''Column'', NULL) A WHERE (name = ''MS_Description'')';

and the SDAC Says

raised exception class EMSError with message 'Invalid object name '::fn_listextendedproperty'.'. Process stopped. Use Step or Run to continue.

What can i do?

I solve it with a fast (not good) way

Procedure TMakeJRBMainForm.CreateMsDescView(ViewName : String);
Begin
If Tools.IsViewExist('MsDesc') Then
Tools.ExecSql('Drop View MsDesc');
Tools.ExecSql('CREATE VIEW dbo.MsDesc AS SELECT objname, CONVERT(char, [value]) AS [OutPut] FROM ::fn_listextendedproperty'+
'(NULL, ''user'', ''dbo'', ''table'', '+QuotedStr(ViewName)+', ''Column'', NULL) A WHERE (name = ''MS_Description'')');

End;

I could not reproduce the problem. Please specify exact version your IDE and the exact version of SDAC.
