SearchInCode

Need to search for a string contained in a proc, view, function, or trigger?  You can use sys.syscomments and JOIN to sysobjects, but it is nice to do all the JOINing beforehand and simply use a nice object dedicated to searching.

USE Admin

GO

IF Object_ID('dbo.SearchInCode') Is Not Null

      DROP PROC dbo.SearchInCode

go

CREATE PROC dbo.SearchInCode

                        @DB varchar(50),

                        @Sort bit = 1,

                        @SearchText1 varchar(200),

                        @SearchText2 varchar(200) = Null,

                        @SearchText3 varchar(200) = Null,

                        @ShowSql bit = 0

vwLogInfoSummary - show Virtual Log Files per database

In the last post on Virtual Log Files, a procedure was given, PopLogInfo, to populate table LogInfo. 

Here, a view is presented to make best use of that table, to see how many VLFs a given database has.
