Remarks

Columns maps to the OLE DB COLUMNS rowset. Unless otherwise specified, restriction columns are returned in the following order.

Restriction column	CLR data type	Description
TABLE_CATALOG	string	Catalog name. A null value if the provider does not support catalogs.
TABLE_SCHEMA	string	Unqualified schema name. A null value if the provider does not support schemas.
TABLE_NAME	string	Table name. The column returned cannot contain a null value.
COLUMN_NAME	string	The name of the column; this might not be unique. If this cannot be determined, a null value is returned. This column, together with the COLUMN_GUID and COLUMN_PROPID columns, forms the column ID. One or more of these columns will be a null value, depending on which elements of the DBID structure the provider uses. (DBID is a formal structure serialized into the COLUMN_NAME column of the COLUMN_DOMAIN_USAGE rowset.) If possible, the resulting column ID should be persistent. However, some providers do not support persistent identifiers for columns. The column ID of a base table should be invariant under views.
