Parameters

  • schemaName
    Type: System.String
    The name of the schema to be retrieved.

Return Value

Type: System.Data.DataSet
A DataSet that represents the contents of the specified OLE DB schema table.

Remarks

The schema table is returned as a DataSet that has the same format as the OLE DB schema rowset specified by the schemaName parameter. Use the restrictions parameter to filter the rows to be returned in the DataSet. (For example, you can specify cube name and dimension name restrictions for the dimensions schema.)

Note

If the schema contains nested rowsets, more tables may be returned in the DataSet.
