BUG: Fully Qualified Names Required for System SPs in SPs

Last reviewed: April 8, 1997
Article ID: Q151115

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server, version 6.5

BUG#: 15191

SYMPTOMS

If you are not logged on as SA and create a stored procedure that calls any system stored procedure without qualification, you will get the following message:

   Cannot add rows to Sysdepends for the current stored procedure because
   it depends on the missing object 'sp_help'. The stored procedure will
   still be created.

WORKAROUND

Specify the system stored procedure name as master.dbo.procedure_name.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
