sp_tables issue

  • Hi  ,

    I am amid resolving a wierd issue.

    The database i am trying to query would let me query all the tables present in the database.there are almost a 1000 of them.I can query them and i get the records.

    But the execution of the stored procedure  "sp_tables"  would return only one table.I was puzzled by this.

    can someone clarify this inconsistency.

    thank you

  • When permissions are granted to a Windows NT group, the users of the group will not be able to see a list of the tables for which they were given permissions.

    Enumerate the users of the group using "xp_logininfo '<groupname>', members" or by using the Windows NT command line "NET LOCALGROUP <groupname>". Then grant access to the necessary tables for the Windows NT users.

    Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server

     7.0. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 1

    for Microsoft SQL Server 7.0.
