New database contains tables/view/Store Procs

    On my SQL database when ever I create a new database it contains table, views and Stored Procedures from an old database I created sometime ago.

    Why and how can I get rid of them?

    If you have the objects created in your model database every new database you create will also have them .

    I'd have a look, clean out the model database to prevent any future issues then drop and recreate your db from scratch (or just drop them in the DB, your choice)

    To expand Mike's post a bit. Whenever you create a new db, SQL Server copies the model db behind the scenes. When you have freshly installed SQL Server, a newly created db should contains 21 objects; 19 system tables and 2 views, IIRC. When you see more objects and/or other you have at some point in time created your own objects in model. These will now also get copied into the new db.

    Be careful with the MODEL database.  Other developers/DBA might be expecting and needing these objects when a database is created.  Better to be sure that these objects are indeed eronious.
