tooltip meta data for schema_name

dmckinney

I don't know where sql prompt gets its meta data for the tooltips which are displayed when using functions but curiously....

...it says that schema_name returns an int!

This doesnt really bother me....it's just strange :?

Many thanks for your post.

Tooltip highlights the function name and return type along with parameter.

Can you explain the issue with example please?

Anu,

The issue is that the schema_name function takes a int - schema_id - as input parameter, and returns - as the name suggests - a string (sysname). it DOES NOT return an int, as the tooltip states.

If you look up schema_name in books online, you can see this, and if you compare with the tooltip text in sql prompt for the same function, you can hopefully understand my question.

Thanks and regards,

David.
