Query regarding views on SQL Server 2000 DB.

  • Firstly, thanks for taking the time to read my post.

    On a SQL Server 2000 db which I have started to work on, a number of unusual Views are present. No-one here seems to have any idea how they were created but they seem to be automated or part of some system functionality from their naming. Each of them runs a simple SELECT * on a single table in the database. 

    The are all names

    _hypmv_2_1345

    or

    syncobj_0x3037415532424145

    But obviously that digits differ for each one.

  • Need to check how they get created.

  • The syncobj_0x1566... views are created by SQL Server for replication when a snapshot gets created. Are you still using replication ? I know that sometimes not all replication objects are removed when replication is removed from the system. You might also find a lot of stored procedures relating to replication.

    About the others (_hypmv) check this link http://lvildosola.blogspot.com/2007/02/sudden-sql-error-during-insertupdate.html

    hope this helps
