Name

Connection.DefaultDatabase Property — (Versions 2.0, 2.1, 2.5, 2.6)

Synopsis

                     connection.DefaultDatabase = database
                  

The DefaultDatabase property indicates the database that is chosen as the default for the current connection.

Datatype

String

Description

The DefaultDatabase property allows the application to specify which database is the default for a Connection object.

Unqualified syntax automatically refers to the database specified by the DefaultDatabase property. Qualifying the object names with the desired database name must be done to access all other databases.

Note

Not all providers support the DefaultDatabase property. If they do not, they may raise an error or return an empty String value.
