Changing a system stored procedure

  • ODBC V2 apps not working on SQL 8.0.  Found an article with a patch to sp_datatype_info system stored procedure.  Would like to test the patch but unable to update the procedure.  Looking for instructions for updating a system stored procedure.

    Able to drop it with T-SQL and recreate.  Thanks

  • Playing around with SQL Server's system objects is one of the easiest ways to fubar SQL Server. In doing so, you're running an unsupported system. I would rather contact the vendor of the ODBC V2 app and see what he suggests.

  • Do not play with the system SP's. What you can do is :

    Find the body of System Proc using sp_helptext 'spname', and then create one for you with different name.
