CheckTables Method
The CheckTables method tests the integrity of database pages implementing storage for all tables and indexes defined on the tables of the referenced database.
Applies To
| Database Object |
Syntax
object.CheckTables( [ RepairType ] ) as String
Parts
object
Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
RepairType
Optionally specifies a database repair action
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT CheckTables(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pResult
SQLDMO_DBCC_REPAIR_TYPE lType = SQLDMORepair_None);
Returns
A string that contains detailed status and error information. For errors with severity 11 or greater, the string is returned as a trappable error in the Err object in Visual Basic.
Remarks
The database referenced by the SQL-DMO object must be in single-user mode when using the RepairType argument of the CheckTables method to perform database repair. To set single-user mode on a database using SQL-DMO, use the SingleUser property of the DBOption object.
The CheckTables method is implemented using the Transact-SQL DBCC CHECKDB statement. The return value of the CheckTables method is a string representation of the error messages returned by DBCC CHECKDB.
Note SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.
