Invalid object name SQL Server 2008 R2 - Stored procedure


I am attempting to alter an existing stored procedure with the command

ALTER 'name_of_stored"procedure'

however the name is highlighted in red noting it is an invalid object. I am able to execute the command successfully however am wanting to know why SQL Server 2008 R2 notes it as an error.enter image description here


Solution

  • It's SSMS, not SQL Server. If it's an error against the database engine you'll know it (it wouldn't execute the command successfully).


    Solution

    You need to refresh the Intellisense cache (Ctrl + Shift + R). Or you can go to Edit -> IntelliSense -> Refresh Local Cache.
