I'm using SQL Server 2005. I've created a view that pulls fields from 5 tables. One of the fields from one of the tables is called 'DivisionDesc'. At the time that the view was created, the datatype of 'DivisionDesc' was nvarchar(30). Later, I changed the datatype of the field in the base table to varchar(50). However, the view did not automatically update with the new changes to the field. Is there a way to have SSMS 'refresh' the datatypes and field sizes to reflect any changes to the base tables?

Is this ongoing or a one time occurrence. close ssms or hit f5. where in SSMS are you viewing this? Server mgr or the workspace?
