SET SCHEMA
Syntax
SET SCHEMA
• When logging commences to a new file, the file contents begin with information about the
SQL Server environment, including:
– Environment variable settings
– Parameter values passed to the server at startup
– Logging control values (such as size limits)
– The SQL Server process ID.
• Each section of information written to the log file begins with the string
DDMMMYYYY HH:MM:SS :
For example, 19AUG2005 12:00:00 1:
Sets the default owner, also known as schema, for unqualified table references.
'string_literal'
?
SET SCHEMA { 'string_literal' | ? | USER }
USER
Specifies the name for the default owner as a string literal, enclosed in single or double
quotes.
Indicates a parameter marker to contain the default owner. The actual replacement value
for the owner name is supplied in a subsequent SQL operation.
Directs the database to set the default owner back to the username that established the
session.
Example This example sets the default schema name to White:
SET SCHEMA 'White' ;
COMMIT ;
SELECT * from customer ;
Subsequent SQL statements with unqualified table references will use the owner name White.
The SELECT statement in this example returns all rows in the ‘White.customer’ table. The
username establishing the original session is still the current user.
Notes • For authorization purposes, invoking SET SCHEMA does not change the username
associated with the current session.
