Sql-server – How to view the stored procedure code in SQL Server Management Studio

sql serverssmstsql

I am new to SQL Server. I am logged into my database through SQL Server Management Studio.

I have a list of stored procedures. How do I view the stored procedure code?

Right clicking on the stored procedure does not have any option like view contents of stored procedure.

Thanks.

sp_helptext <name of your sp>

Sql-server – How to check if a column exists in a SQL Server table

SQL Server 2005 onwards:

IF EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM sys.columns 
          WHERE Name = N'columnName'
          AND Object_ID = Object_ID(N'schemaName.tableName'))
BEGIN
    -- Column Exists
END

Martin Smith's version is shorter:

IF COL_LENGTH('schemaName.tableName', 'columnName') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
    -- Column Exists
END
