Owner Property (Database, UserDefinedFunction)
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The Owner property exposes the Microsoft SQL Server0 user-assigned ownership rights to the referenced SQL Server element.
Syntax
object.Owner
Parts
- object
An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
Data Type
String
Modifiable
Read-only
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT GetOwner(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
Note
SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference by using SysFreeString.
Remarks
SQL Server establishes ownership rules for databases. Some permissions default to a database owner, and ownership forms one portion of SQL Server access control.
SQL Server database ownership can be changed using the SetOwner method of the Database
object.
