FIX: Stored Procedure Can't Be Upgraded

• Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5

SYMPTOMS

If a Microsoft SQL Server 6.0 database contains a stored procedure that references a view contained in a SELECT INTO statement, the upgrade process for the database may fail with the following errors when running sp_db_upgrade3 (with results found in the Upgrad1b.out file in the Mssql\Install directory or directly from LOAD DATABASE or sp_db_upgrade):

Msg 2821, Level 16, State 2
You must drop and recreate procedure zview.

Msg 4401, Level 16, State 2
View 'zview' no longer exists

Msg 208, Level 16, State 1
Invalid object name '#x'
Error occurred upgrading object myproc in database <name>, please drop
And recreate.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, drop and re-create the procedure.
