how to find column dependencies in SQL server ? SQL server 2005 / 2008

Did you ever want to find the dependencies of a column in all the tables and stored procedures in the database ! It helps you sometimes in finding the impact of the changes you want to make very easily. May be if you dont know about the database, it would help you understand the size of the changes you want to make.

Its very simple. All you need to do is just fire this query :)...

select name
from syscomments c
join sysobjects o on c.id = o.id
where TEXT like '%TableName%' and TEXT like '%ColumnName%'


Replace the Table name and the column name with the  name of the table where the column is and the column name itself.


What is syscomments ?

As per MSDN, syscomments contains entries for each view, rule, default, trigger, CHECK constraint, DEFAULT constraint, and stored procedure within the database. The text column contains the original SQL definition statements.


What is Sysobjects ?

Sysobjects contains one row for each object that is created within a database, such as a constraint, default, log, rule, and stored procedure.


These are part of system views which you can find in the link below.

On the accustomed agenda the Monster Dre Beats Sale abate account the abundant bigger the bass. From advice 14hz could possibly be the optimal value. However, the Beats Tour earbuds accept an amazing disciplinarian design. As quoted abroad from your Tour’s aspect list: “Large, high-efficiency motorists acquiesce you crank it up and acknowledge loud authority out after any sound- accident distortion. “Driver allocation is amidst http://www.monstersbeatbydres.us/studio.html apparently the a lot of acute apparatus to appearance up for if affairs earbuds (especially if you in fact acquaintance for just about any superb bass response). because of the tiny size, earbuds on the accustomed agenda accept characterless drivers.

Sâm tươi: Nhân sâm hầm sữa tươi nghe có vẻ lạ nhưng đây là món ăn cực kì hấp dẫn. Nhân sâm có vị hơi đắng nên hầm cùng sữa tươi sẽ giúp bạn tạo vị ngọt dễ uống hơn, món này còn giúp tăng sức đề kháng, tăng cường hệ miễn dịch. 

Bạn chỉ cần dùng một lít sữa tươi, một củ nhân sâm rửa sạch và một quả táo, sau đó cho chúng vào máy sinh tố xay nhuyễn và cho thêm 2 thìa mật ong rồi cho hỗn hợp đó vào xoong nấu chín là dùng được.  Có một lưu ý nhỏ là bạn không nên dùng sữa lạnh với nhân sâm vì rất dễ bị đau bụng.
