Stored procedure modified time

Question

Is there a way to find out when a stored procedure or table was last modified? I tried checking the properties via SQL Management Studio, but only found the creation date.

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can use this to find the last modified date for a stored procedure:

select name, create_date, modify_date
from sys.procedures
where name = 'sp_MyStoredProcedure'

You can use this to find the last modified date for a table:

select name, create_date, modify_date 
from sys.tables
where name = 'MyTable'

To find the last modified date and other info for other objects, you can query sys.objects . http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190324.aspx contains a full list of types you can search for.

select top 10 * 
from sys.objects 
where type in ('p', 'u')
