Sysobjects lacking

  • Weirdest thing ... I have a table in my DB not in sysobjects ... any idea why

  • Just to check the obvious first , you are in the same db as the table when you select from sysobjects?

     

  • Yes Sir ... Good Question. I'm the only one who asks dumb questions in this forum : )

  • What happens if you run DBCC CHECKCATALOG in this database ?

  • DBCC results for 'current database'.

    DBCC execution completed.

  • craziness, what about select * from sysobjects where [name] like '%XXXXX%'

    Where XXXXX is the name of the table you are looking for

     

  • I see it now with '%...' .. I had tried '...%'.  Why?

  • the wildcard character implies that there's either a single (_) existing character or multiple (%) existing character where you've inserted the wildcard

    instead of searching for table1 like '%1%' search for it like '%e%'

    geez

    Max

  • Is there a way to see what character exists (which I can't see) before the first character of what I think is the table name?
