The .ParseTableName() method takes a fully qualified table name and returns the base table name, owner, schema and catalog for the table. For example:

dim CatalogName as C
dim SchemaName as C
dim OwnerName as C
dim BaseTableName as C
dim FullName as C = "dbo.[hello.world]"
dim ti as sql::tableinfo 

? ti.ParseTableName(CatalogName, SchemaName, OwnerName, BaseTableName, FullName)
= .T.

? CatalogName
= ""

? SchemaName
= ""

? OwnerName
= "dbo"

? BaseTableName
= "dAgency.06"

? fullname
= "[dAgency.06]"
