<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Purpose</h4> <p><samp class="codeph">SQLTables()</samp> returns
a list of table names and associated information stored in the system catalogs
of the connected data source. The list of table names is returned as a result
set, which can be retrieved using the same functions that are used to retrieve
a result set generated by a SELECT statement.</p>

of non-duplicate schemas in the data source.</p>
