Develops an analogy between database table and file directory information and argues that it could be very useful if it were possible to have a similar application to Windows Explorer for database tables. Demonstrates how to obtain the information from Sql Server system tables and dynamic management
using System;

namespace DbView
{
	/// <summary>
	/// Summary description for DbViewApplicationException.
	/// </summary>
	public class DbViewApplicationException : ApplicationException
	{
		public DbViewApplicationException()
		    : base()
		{
		}
        public DbViewApplicationException(String message)
            : base(message)
        {   
        }
        public DbViewApplicationException(String message, SystemException InnerException)
            : base(message, InnerException)
        {   
        }
    }
}
