When I follow the tutorials online - using the SQL Server Management Studio 2008 - to view stored procedures, it appears completely blank. But, when I run this query, I see the stored procedure that I've created (multipleOrderSearch)

SELECT * 
FROM sc.information_schema.routines
WHERE routine_type = 'PROCEDURE'
AND SPECIFIC_NAME LIKE '%multiple%'


Is there a setting that might hide stored procedures? More to the point, how would I edit it? In other instances, I would right click and press alter, which shows me everything I need. What do I do here?

If necessary ,you could extract the text from the system tables using the query on : http://www.sqlserver-dba.com/2007/03/search_for_text.html and then use ALTER to edit the procedure , assuming you had permissions

Have you been granted "VIEW DEFINITION" rights?

I'm the only user/admin on the server. However I've loaded someone else's database. So I can change any of the settings, I just need to know which ones to change. I'll Google the VIEW DEFINITION rights.
