Since you do not include which version of SQL Server you are using, you
don't include any error messages, I will have to guess.
For indexed views to work, there are a couple of SET options that must
be in the correct posittion: QUOTED_IDENTIFIFER, ANSI_NULLS, ANSI_PADDING,
CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL, ANSI_WARNING, ARITHABORT (SQL 2000 only) and
NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT. They must all be on, but the last which must be off.
The first two are saved with stored procedures, and the run-time setting
does not apply. ANSI_PADDING is saved per table column. For the other
only run-time settings apply. A common error is that procedures have
been created with a tool that by default has QUOTED_IDENTIFIER or ANSI_NULLS
off. SQLCMD and OSQL has QUOTED_IDENTIFIER off by default. Enterprise
Manager in SQL 2000 has both off by default.
So my guess is that your stored procedures have been loaded through
any of these tools, and care has not been taking to use the correct
options. Why the error persisted when you removed the indexed view, I
don't know, but my guess is that you had in fact not removed the view
although you claim that you did.
