[SQL] search for a keyword in SQL Server

[SQL] SQL Server in the view (View), pre-existing process (Stored Procedure), scalar functions, data sheets and other functions, with sys.sysobjects and sys.syscomments search keywords.

Search for keyword in SQL Server

When you want to search for a specific keyword in SQL Server's View (View), pre-existing process (Stored Procedure), scalar functions, data sheets and other functions .. exists.

Use sys.sysobjcets and sys.syscomments search, SQL syntax is as follows:

SELECT *
FROM sys.sysobjects 
INNER JOIN syscomments ON sys.sysobjects.id = sys.syscomments.id  --对应id
WHERE sys.syscomments.text LIKE '%关键字%'  --想要查询的关键字

sys.sysobjcets: for each object within the database established, such as conditional constraints, defaults, records, pre-existing rules and processes, each containing a data column.

sys.syscomments: Each database contains the view, rules, defaults, triggers the process, CHECK constraint conditions, constraints, and pre-existing conditions DEFAULT project process. text data row contains the original SQL definition statement.

sys.syscomments.text: the actual text of the SQL definition statement. Search the keywords in the field.

To specify the view (View), pre-existing process (Stored Procedure), scalar functions, data table function .. and so on. Plus conditions sys.sysobjects.type = 'object type'.

SELECT *
FROM sys.sysobjects 
INNER JOIN syscomments ON sys.sysobjects.id = sys.syscomments.id  --对应id
WHERE sys.syscomments.text LIKE '%关键字%'  --想要查询的关键字
AND sys.sysobjects.type = '对象类型'  --指定的对象类型

sys.sysobjects type type:

• AF = aggregate function (CLR)

• C = CHECK Constraint

• D = Default or DEFAULT Constraint

• F = FOREIGN KEY Constraint

• FN = scalar functions

• FS = component (CLR) scalar functions

• FT = component (CLR) data table valued function IF = in-line data table function

• IT - internal data table

• K = PRIMARY KEY constraints or conditions UNIQUE

• Record L =

• P = pre-existing process

• PC = component (CLR) stored process

• R = rule

• RF = replication stored screening process

• S = System Data Sheet

• SN = synonyms

• SQ = service queue

• TA = component (CLR) DML trigger process

• Data table function TF =

• TR = SQL DML trigger process

• Data Sheet Type TT =

• U = user data table

• View V =

• X = Extended stored process

 

For example, to search there 'Name' text in this view, SQL, such as:

SELECT *
FROM sys.sysobjects 
INNER JOIN syscomments ON sys.sysobjects.id = sys.syscomments.id  --对应id
WHERE sys.syscomments.text LIKE '%Name%'  --想要查询的关键字，Name
AND sys.sysobjects.type = 'V'  --指定的对象类型，检视(View)
