When you use drop view, the definition of the view and other information about it, including privileges, is deleted from the system tables sysobjects, syscolumns, syscomments, sysdepends, sysprocedures, and sysprotects.
Existence of a view is checked each time the view is referenced, for example, by another view or by a stored procedure.
