ScottPletcher,

We don't have authority to alter table definitions.

This is Financial Application database by third party.

We don't own the database.

We even create all our custom code in a separate (Diff_Data) database

that has views with the same names as table names in the main database.

And in our stored procedures we point to those views.

I tried to create an index on a view

but I get an error

"Cannot schema bind view 'prj_detail' because name 'proddb6..prj_detail' is invalid for schema binding."

Here is my syntax to create a view WITH SCHEMABINDING:

CREATE VIEW prj_detail WITH SCHEMABINDING

AS

select

[prj_code]

,[accounting_period]

,[co_code]

FROM

Proddb6.dbo.prj_detail
