List Stored Procedures with Contents in SQL Server

tech — tags: script, sqlserver — rohand @ April 7, 2010 8:47 AM

I needed to get a list of all stored procedures that accessed a specific column in a table. Some stored procedures generated dynamic SQL statements so the View Dependencies feature was not guaranteed to get me the full list.

This query lets me retrieve the name and body of all stored procedures in a database. Adding the filter to look for the specific column is relatively simple.

SELECT              o.Name AS SpName, c.Text AS SpBody
FROM                syscomments c WITH (NOLOCK)
JOIN                sysobjects o WITH (NOLOCK)
ON                  c.ID = o.ID
AND                 o.Type = 'P'        -- Only stored procedures
ORDER BY            o.Name

This query is for SQL Server 2005 but should work across all versions.

Find All Rows in Table1 That Are Not in Table2 Using JOIN

tech — tags: sqlserver — rohand @ February 15, 2010 1:06 PM

To find all rows that are in dbo.TABLE1 but not in dbo.TABLE2 using the SQL JOIN operator:

SELECT              COUNT(*)
FROM                dbo.TABLE1 t1 WITH (NOLOCK)
LEFT OUTER JOIN     dbo.TABLE2 t2 WITH (NOLOCK)
ON                  t1.PrimaryKey = t2.PrimaryKey
WHERE               t2.PrimaryKey IS NULL

SQL 2008 – Manage DTS Packages

tech — tags: script, sqlserver — rohand @ January 27, 2010 5:25 PM

I installed the SQL Server 2008 Feature Pack to get the DTS components for SQL Server Management Studio 2008. However, the IDE continued to error until I copied the following files from the SQL Server 2000 manager to the SQL 2008 Manager folders.

You need to have SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager installed on the same machine.

Copy Components into SQL Server 2005

copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\semsfc.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\semsfc.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlgui.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\sqlgui.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlsvc.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\sqlsvc.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\semsfc.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\semsfc.rll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\sqlgui.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\sqlgui.rll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\sqlsvc.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\sqlsvc.rll"

Copy Components into SQL Server 2008

copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\semsfc.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\semsfc.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlgui.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\sqlgui.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlsvc.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\sqlsvc.dll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\semsfc.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\semsfc.rll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\sqlgui.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\sqlgui.rll" copy /y "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033\sqlsvc.rll" "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033\sqlsvc.rll"
