The SQLCOLPRIVILEGES view contains one row for every privileges granted on a column. Note that this catalog view cannot be used to determine whether a user is authorized to a column because the privilege to use a column could be acquired through a group user profile or special authority (such as *ALLOBJ). Furthermore, the privilege to use a column is also acquired through privileges granted on the table.
The following table describes the columns in the view:
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| TABLE_CAT | VARCHAR(128) | Relational database name. |
| TABLE_SCHEM | VARCHAR(128) | Name of the SQL schema that contains the table. |
| TABLE_NAME | VARCHAR(128) | Table name. |
| COLUMN_NAME | VARCHAR(128) | Column name. |
| GRANTOR | VARCHAR(128) Nullable |
Reserved. Contains the null value. |
| GRANTEE | VARCHAR(128) | The user profile to which the privilege is granted. |

|
| IS_GRANTABLE | VARCHAR(3) | Indicates whether the privilege is
grantable to other users.

| DBNAME | VARCHAR(8) Nullable |
