Ever since I connected to a SQL 2000 server of mine with SQL 2005 SSMS I can't see the properties of the databases from within SQL 2000 Enterprise manager.

Has anyone seen this before? The Server in question is 2000 Enterprise edition SP4 on a win 2003 server.

But before that I was getting [SQL-DMO] [EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION]

Run sp_helpdb in query analyzer to see if maser is in the list. By the way, tried reboot your machine then open em again?

sp_helpdb results:

Server: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_helpdb, Line 53
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'owner', table 'tempdb.dbo.#spdbdesc__
____000100002215'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.

That's interesting. I think I need to check the owners of all the DBs.

Well it turns out that I had no owner on one of the databases. I ran sp_changedbowner with a valid user and all is well.

Thanks.
