SET NO_BROWSETABLE

SET NO_BROWSETABLE#

When ON, every SELECT statement behaves as though FOR BROWSE were appended to it, so the result carries the additional browse-mode metadata that identifies the columns and the base tables behind the result set. When OFF (the default), statements run normally.

Syntax#

SET NO_BROWSETABLE { ON | OFF }  [;]

Remarks#

Browse-mode metadata lets a client see which base table and key columns each result column comes from. It is used by some data-access layers that build updatable result sets. Turning the option on applies this mode to every SELECT in the session. The default is OFF.
