| Subj: | | References in WINDDI |
| |
| From: | | Frank C. Martinez IV |
Hello all,
Well, I was noticing that when I brought up the object menu in WINDDI on a table/view/etc., the REFERENCES option appeared for
myself. However, other dba-type users did not have this appear on the object (uh, when you right click on the table, the menu that
comes up) menus' that they had. Well, I tracked this down, going back to some original thoughts, and when the dba before me set me
up, he gave me SELECT access to the TVM table in DBC. That's the key to having REFERENCES appear. This particular function is very
useful for asking the question, "If I change this table, what views, macros, procedures might need to change?" So what I was
wondering if anyone out there is aware of any awful information, any dangerous information might be available to by being able to
read TVM? Also, why is there no DBC view that would give this information, so I could grant access to that, just like I do for
people who want to run HELP/SHOW, etc. Yes, I COULD create one of my own, but I make it a habit not to roll my own DBC views, unless
I have to. So did someone leave this out or what? Thanks!
