TL;DR; Discusses issues with Visual Studio 2008 GDR CTP16 handling complex stored procedure dependencies during database import, and challenges faced when uninstalling the GDR.

Well we have been having a few problems with the GDR . Essentially when we import our database it complains about dependencies.
We have many stored procedures that call stored procedures that call stored procedures! This seams to give the GDR fits. Maybe we are doing something that we are not supposed to, but SQL does not complain.
I tried uninstalling the GDR, but that left me with NO data dude :(
SO I have reinstalled and will try again….
If you've made it this far, it's worth connecting with our principal consultant and coach, Martin Hinshelwood, for a 30-minute 'ask me anything' call.
We partner with businesses across diverse industries, including finance, insurance, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, technology, engineering, transportation, hospitality, entertainment, legal, government, and military sectors.
