Adding procedure to SQL Server Express

I am adding (trying to add) a procedure (written by a friend of mine and someone who is experienced). I am adding it via the SQL Server Mgt. Studio Express. When I run it, it says that the command completed successfully, but it doesn't appear in the Procedure folder.

When I run my ASP 2.0 form that calls it, it says that it can't find the procedure.

Can anyone help me determine what to look for or what I might be doing wrong?

Thank you.

How exactly are you adding the object to the database inside the Management tools. Has you friend supplied a SQL script file and you are running it inside a new query window. If so you will need to make sure that the query you are running is inside the correct database. Generally you should have a use statement at the top of the database

Query for example

use northwind
go

and then have the Stored procedure script following it.

He forgot the USE statement. Previously it was adding into the system area. My knowlede of procedures is limited, but I should have thought of that myself.

Thank you.
