| Hi, I'm having a problem with querying a table from a database.My query is as simple as select * from coll_setup.This same query used to work earlier but today it gave me the Msg 208 error. I do understand that this error signifies that the table is not a part of the database. But it surely is and I can view the table data by right clicking on the table under MS SQL Server Management Studio and selecting open table.I tried select * from information_schema.tables and coll_setup does'nt show in the listing.Pls help.Thanks,Vishal |

| Have you tried: select * from ObjectOwner.coll_setup? Who owns the object, dbo?Are you sure you are looking in the right database?How about this:USE SomeDatabaseGOSELECT * FROM ObjectOwner.coll_setupTara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/Subscribe to my blog |
