SQL Server DBCC Commands: DBCC USEROPTIONS

DBCC USEROPTIONS is a database console command (DBCC) in Microsoft SQL Server that can be used to view the current session-level settings for a user connection. Viewing the session-level settings can be useful for troubleshooting issues with a user connection or for understanding the behavior of the database engine.

To use DBCC USEROPTIONS, you must specify the session ID of the user connection you want to view the settings for. You can obtain the session ID using the @@SPID system function.

Here is an example of how to use DBCC USEROPTIONS to view the session-level settings for the current user connection:

-- View the session-level settings for the current user connection
DBCC USEROPTIONS (@@SPID);

The output of DBCC USEROPTIONS will be a list of the session-level settings for the specified user connection, including the language, date format, and other settings.

Please note that DBCC USEROPTIONS can only be used to view the session-level settings for a user connection. It cannot be used to modify the settings. To modify the session-level settings for a user connection, you can use the SET statement or the sp_configure stored procedure.

DBCC USEROPTIONS is a useful tool for viewing the session-level settings for a user connection in SQL Server. It can be helpful for troubleshooting issues with a user connection or for understanding the behavior of the database engine.
