If I said "MS SQL stored queries", would you all know what I am talking about?

A host for a website of mine can't figure out what I am talking about. The stored queries in the database suddenly disappeared yesterday rendering the website useless and I am trying to get them to restore them but can't even get my point across as to what they are. Am I crazy or are they just "ignorant"?

Are these usually restorable. I have all the data backed up locally but never saved the query structures.

When I hear "Stored Queries" I would think you're referring to those stored queries in Access.

If it's on SQL Server, I would assume you mean stored procedures.

If it's Access, a local file should have them in there if you backed it up, you should be able to just copy the structure into the newer db.

If it's SQL Server, it just depends on whether or not your host or yourself does backups including stored procs.

It wasn't till I read this twice that I saw your called them "queries" rathar than "procedures" I would think any average person with a bit of MS SQL knowledge should be able to work out what your talking about pretty quickly.

Whether your procedures and views etc are backed up again may be a whole nother matter as VodakFish pointed out.

It really pays to keep your own backup copies of things like that.

I always save mine locally as .sql files personally.
