unresolved reference to object [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLES]

Question

I\'ve created a UDF that accesses the [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLES] view:

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[CountTables]
(
    @name sysname
)
RETURNS INT
         


        

Answer 1

In our project, we already have a reference to master, but we had this issue. Here was the error we got:

SQL71502: Procedure: [Schema].[StoredProc1] has an unresolved reference to object [Schema].[Table1].[Property1].

To resolve the reference error, on the table sql file, right click properties and verify the BuildSettings are set to Build.

Changing it build fixed it.
