DATA Tables missing

After several invocations, I can no longer select the data table from two local databases I've been working on.

I've checked everything I found here, in knowledge base; restarted SQL server; rebooted my machine.

What could be happening.

Dozens of tables no longer appear, yet I only worked (and only on data content) on one.

Thanks for any pointers.

Bogged down in the middle of user application upgrade (arghhhh).

  • Don't know what changed; I deleted and recreated the primary key on the table I wanted.

    Maybe 4 invocations later this table started showing up in my choices to compare again....

    ...at least I'm on my way now, but strange.
  • Hi Yarko

    Glad the problem resolved itself for you.

    If this happens again please let us know so we can look into it.

  • I am also missing at least one table in SQL Data Compare.

    here are the specs (as found by SQL Compare)

    -- Columns
    CREATE TABLE [dbo].[WhatIf]
    (
    [WhatIfId] [int] NOT NULL IDENTITY(1, 1),
    [ParentReminderTemplateId] [int] NULL,
    [QuestionText] [varchar] (2000) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,
    [TargetReminderTemplateId] [int] NOT NULL
    )

    GO

    -- Foreign keys
    ALTER TABLE [dbo].[WhatIf] ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_WhatIf_ReminderTemplate] FOREIGN KEY ([ParentReminderTemplateId]) REFERENCES [dbo].[ReminderTemplate] ([ReminderTemplateId])
    GO
    ALTER TABLE [dbo].[WhatIf] ADD CONSTRAINT [FK_WhatIf_ReminderTemplate1] FOREIGN KEY ([TargetReminderTemplateId]) REFERENCES [dbo].[ReminderTemplate] ([ReminderTemplateId])
    GO

    Hello Jeff,

    Thanks for that. I still do not see a primary key/unique index/unique constraint there. Hopefully you haven't set SQL Compare to ignore the primary keys!
