## Syntax

```syntaxsql
DBCC USEROPTIONS
[ WITH NO_INFOMSGS ]
```

## Arguments

#### NO_INFOMSGS

## Result sets

`DBCC USEROPTIONS` returns a column for the name of the SET option and a column for the value of the option (values and entries may vary):

```output

(13 row(s) affected)
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.
```

## Remarks

`DBCC USEROPTIONS` reports an isolation level of `read committed snapshot` when the database option `READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT` is set to ON and the transaction isolation level is set to `read committed`. The actual isolation level is read committed.

## Permissions

Requires membership in the **public** role.

## Examples

The following example returns the active SET options for the current connection.

```sql
DBCC USEROPTIONS;
```
