I need to find a way to determine what object in a database has

  • 0

I need to find a way to determine what object in a database has the original database name hardcoded into it. I’ve restored a copy of a database under a different name and run homegrown scripts to make all the naming adjustments. Let’s say the original DB was named ABC_Db and the restored copy has been renamed to XYZ_Db. When I attempt to perform an UPDATE on CoreTable, I get

Invalid object name ‘ABC_Db.dbo.CoreTable’

I’ve queried against the syscomments and done various manual checks against relations and indexes, etc. with no luck. What’s next?

Thanks,

John

    If you want to search through a Microsoft SQL Server database schema, the best tool is RedGate’s SQL Search – and it’s free. It’s awesome.
