Is there is any Go To Definition like functionality in SQL SERVER which we use in Visual Studio. It's a little painful to browse and edit a SP or function. Any other quick way to edit will be appreciated.
To get the list of all the functions in a database, you can use the transact SQL statement against the system objects like Sys. Objects, Information_Schema. Routines, syscomments or Sys. Sql_Modules.
The SQL LIKE OperatorThe LIKE operator is used in a WHERE clause to search for a specified pattern in a column. There are two wildcards often used in conjunction with the LIKE operator: The percent sign (%) represents zero, one, or multiple characters. The underscore sign (_) represents one, single character.
Some third-party tools will help, such as:
No. SQL Server objects don't fit into .net namespaces or object hierarchy
You can kind of emulate it with Red Gate SQL Search in SQL Server Management Studio. Or SSMS Tools Pack, but neither of these are for Visual Studio
SQL Server 2012 seems to have this functionality. Tools --> Options --> Environment --> Keyboard --> Edit.GoToDefinition, which should be F12. If not, assign the key.
Check out dbForge SQL complete: link - useful tool, has a trial, also free version but it doesn't contain go to definition functionality, only full version does.
