Description

This stored procedure provides primary key information about remote tables using remote data access.

Because of differences in the underlying ODBC/JDBC calls, the information returned differs slightly in terms of the catalog/database value depending upon the remote data access class that is specified for the server. However, the important information (for example, column name) is as expected.
