Try closing the connection...

If I answered that question with...

First, Try...Catch won't handle missing objects correctly. That level of error skips the Catch block and just crashes and burns. Anything that won't let the code compile (like...

To be blunt, your best bet is to begin to re-engineer the whole system so that it doesn't use such a view. From what you're describing so far, it...

Don't use implicit inserts. That's the best solution. Name your columns, in both the insert and the select.

I learned SQL from Paul Nielsen's "SQL Server 2000 Bible", but I have to admit I haven't opened my copy of it in probably 3 years. But, in the...
