Thread: Referencing a system view in SQl select statement

Referencing a system view in SQl select statement Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

We use the following procedure to populate a drop-down box with a list of all tables in the SLX DB. We recently upgraded to SQL 2005 and the view list changed abit from SQL 2000. After updating the fields in the procedure I still get a "Failed to Parse SQL" on the rst.Open.... line when I try to open the form which displays the table list.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Sub frmNJSSyncFix_WhenChange(Sender)
cboTable.Text = ""
cboField.Text = ""
cmdCancel.Caption = "Cancel"
Dim SQL, rst, strColumn
strColumn = "BASE TABLE"
SQL = "SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE LIKE '" & strColumn & "' ORDER BY TABLE_NAME"
Set rst = createobject("ADODB.Recordset")
rst.open SQL, Application.GetNewConnection
cboTable.Clear
While not rst.eof and not rst.bof
cboTable.Items.Add Cstr(rst("TABLE_NAME"))
rst.MoveNext
Wend
rst.close
Set rst = Nothing
Application.BasicFunctions.RefreshMainView

End Sub

Would it work to just use the SLX table and enabled view list? If so, you could use what is in the resynctabledefs table in the SLX database. Otherwise, maybe it would work better to wrap the query in a stored proc and just call that? Or use a native SQL connection to run the query.

Using Resynctabledefs works:

Changes to two lines required:

SQL = "SELECT TABLENAME FROM RESYNCTABLEDEFS ORDER BY TABLENAME"
cboTable.Items.Add Cstr(rst("TABLENAME"))

Thanks for the input. The resynctabledefs table resolved the issue.
