Unable to find table in the database

    Ok I am executing the following statement

    select * from detail

    and gettign the following error

    Major Error 0x80040E37, Minor Error 0

    > select * from detail

    The specified table does not exist. [ detail ]

    I know the table exists.

    I am using a sdf database file in sql 2005. this was working fine and then suddenly stopped working.

    I am connecting to the databse file from different directories, in some of the directories there were no table.

    Thanks.

    Are you sure you are in the right database?

    Who is the owner of the object?

    Have you tried this way objectowner.tablename?

    IE :

    select * from dbo.detail

    Are you connecting to the correct database?

    What are you using to run the above query?

    Thanks.

    One does not typically find a table in a directory. The table resides within the database file not in a directory.

    So what was the problem? Might be helpful to other folks if we knew.

    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
