I am getting different results for two queries about a table column.
when I run the following query against syscolumns:
Select so.name,so.xtype ,sc.name,sc.xtype from sysobjects so
Join syscolumns sc on sc.id = so.id
Where so.name = 'abn_'
And sc.name = 'person_id'
I get no rows
when I run
select * from information_schema.columns
where table_name = 'abn_'
and column_name = 'person_id'
I get the row for abn_.person_id
Do I have a corrupt database? And how can I fix it?

Not being ale to look at what is in your system, not sure. One thing I would suggest, however, is to not use sysobjects and syscolumns. These are for backward compatibility. You should start using the new system views; sys.objects, sys.tables, sys.columns, etc.

I'm not sure what would cause that but if you want to see if you have a corrupt DB run dbcc checkdb.

it runs fine on my SS2012 and SS2008R2 dev databases. It just doesn't run on production. 🙁
