All the object names in a DBEnvironment can be represented in the DBEnvironment language or in NATIVE 3000. The following rules for object names are the same as for ASCII:

  • The length of an object name is specified as a number of bytes. Note that this would mean a maximum of 20 characters for a table name in English and 10 in Chinese, because Chinese is represented in a two-byte character set.

  • Table and view names can be qualified by prefixing the owner name followed by a period ('.') The period serves as the delimiter and is thus a part of the syntax of SQL. It cannot be represented by a native language delimiter but must be ASCII.
