dbo prefix for tables only or for all?

  • For our development sql 2000 box our developers generally use the "dbo" prefix for table names. (e.g. dbo.Customers). But they do not use a prefix for views of stored procs (i.e. no dbo.spGetNames)

    I'm interested in your comments on the practice of using "dbo" as above and why, if they use it for tables, they wouldn't also use it for views and stored procs..

    TIA,

    Bill

  • Sushila,

    Thanks. I liked that article.

    By extension I guess the author would also qualify all stored proc and view name references.
