Stored procedures disappear

Dear All,

I recently had cause to modify an existing Stored Procedure in MySQL Administrator so I selected the appropriate routine and clicked Edit Stored Proc. I was rather alarmed when a blank "MySQL SQL Editor" window appeared - it looked like my routine definition had been wiped. However, I soon realised that the routine was very much alive and well when I called it via the MySQL Query Browser and it returned the expected result set.

I eventually worked out that this behaviour seems to be related to the "Definer" field. All of my routines have Definer set to the same username (which has the necessary privileges granted) but different hostnames (as my laptop moves between work and home). It is when the Definer contains a hostname/IP address different to the one I am currently using, that I am unable to view my existing routines.

Unfortunately, my IP address at home is dynamically allocated by my ISP so the hostname found in the Definer field is likely to change daily, assuming I've created or edited a routine that day.

So my question is this:
How do I ensure that I can access the definitions of all my routines via the username found in the Definer field, regardless of hostname/ip address?

Your advice would be gratefully received.

Many thanks,

Clive
