I'm trying to figure out why the Create date for one of my tables, as displayed in enterprise manager, has recently changed. Is there something that will modify this date other than actually creating a table? I've been very careful to always uncheck Include all dependent objects whenever I copy objects, so I don't believe I have copied it over from another db. Plus, the data in the table seems to be correct.

I have made some modifications to the indexes on that particular table, but that shouldn't change the create date should it?

Have you changed any thing on the table its self, and this will do a drop recreate.

Brilliant. That's it. I did increase one of the field sizes. Thanks

No problem, its worth remembering that doing a modify will in fact drop the table and then recrate it.

only via Enterprise Manager.

sysobjecs.crdate will not change if you use the "alter table" command
