Hello @Khot, Muralidhar ,

Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform

This syntax (sp_special_columns_100) is not supported by serverless SQL pool in Azure Synapse Analytics.

For more details, refer to sp_special_columns_100 (Azure Synapse Analytics).

Hope this will help. Please let us know if any further queries.

Bumping this. It seems that MS Access tries to call on the old sp_special_columns_100 procedure . There is no way to extract data from serverless at the moment via MS Access.
