Where are my system stored procedures?

  • I create a couple of databases for some testing yesterday and part of my testing is using some of the system stored procedures.

    When I tried to run one of the procedures, it failed.  When I started troubleshooting, I noticed that my system stored procedures were not there. 

    I think I have seen something like this in the past where they were not there at first but then they appeared.

    Anybody have any ideas?

    Thanks,

  • There's a check box in the SQL Server Registration that specifies show system databases and system objects. Check that, but otherwise it may be a permissions issue.

  • Thanks, I checked that box but it was set to allow me to see the system objects.  I am the system admin so I can see everything.

    The strange thing was, I created a dummy table in the database and when I did, the dtproperties table showed up then the system stored procedures showed up.  I don't know why.  I am going to have to research that some more.

    I don't know if I have ever really looked at a new database before I created any objects.  I only did that here because I was just using it for testing and I didn't really need any user objects to start.

    Strange!

  • I have experienced similar results when creating a new database.  I believe nothing is visible until at least one user object is available.  Just so you know you are not alone.
