[dba-SQLServer] The problem is the query, not the data

Not sure what you mean by 'save the query'...
If it is a view, you can script it as 'Drop And Create...' to a new window.  You can manually execute any of those statements (first the drop, then modify it as needed, then create it again) as you need to.

No, I am talking about the query itself, not the data.  I tried to add something (a field I think) and it allowed me to do so until I tried to save the changes, and then SQL Server threw an error.
Tried to copy the SQL to a new query and save, that worked.  Dried to delete the old query, SQL Server threw an error.  So I have a query which works (can pull data) but cannot be modified or deleted.
