Default value
PBNoCatalog='NO'
Usage
When a DataWindow object is created dynamically using SyntaxFromSQL and modified so that it can use stored procedure updates, PowerBuilder looks for the PowerBuilder catalog tables. If PBCatalogOwner is not set, PowerBuilder looks for the catalog tables under the owner SYSTEM. The DataWindow created may be different depending on whether PBCatalogOwner was set, and errors may be generated if the tables do not exist under the owner SYSTEM. To prevent PowerBuilder from using the catalog tables, set the PBNoCatalog parameter to true.
This parameter can also be set in the PBODB initialization file for connection to Oracle through the ODBC and OLE DB drivers.
This parameter cannot be set dynamically. The value set when the connection is made remains in effect until it is disconnected.
Examples
To tell PowerBuilder not to use catalog tables, type the following in code:
SQLCA.DBParm="PBNoCatalog='Yes'"
