Specifies the name of the default catalog for a multischema database. If you omit the catalog name when you specify an object in a multischema database, SQL uses the default catalog name. If you do not specify a default catalog name, the default is RDB$CATALOG. If you qualify the catalog name with an alias, the alias and catalog name pair must be in uppercase characters and you must enclose the alias and catalog name pair within double quotation marks. See the User_Supplied_Names HELP topic for more information on catalogs.
