How to Check all stored procedure is ok in sql server?

Question

How to check all stored procedure is ok in sql server if I drop a table or fields?

Answer 1

Couple of ways that come to mind

1. Most obvious way run the procedures
2. check dependencies on the table before you drop the table or a field. then check out those dependent proceudres
3. generate scripts on all procedures and search for that field or table
4. Query sysobjects

Answer 2

It won't catch everything (dynamic SQL or latebound objects), but it can be useful - call sp_refreshsqlmodule on all non-schema bound stored procedures (you can call it before to ensure that dependencies are updated and then query the dependencies, or call it afterwards and see if anything is broken):

DECLARE @template AS varchar(max)
SET @template = 'PRINT ''{OBJECT_NAME}''
EXEC sp_refreshsqlmodule ''{OBJECT_NAME}''

'

DECLARE @sql AS varchar(max)

SELECT  @sql = ISNULL(@sql, '') + REPLACE(@template, '{OBJECT_NAME}',
                                          QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_SCHEMA) + '.'
                                          + QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_NAME))
FROM    INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES
WHERE   OBJECTPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_SCHEMA) + '.'
                                 + QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_NAME)),
                       N'IsSchemaBound') IS NULL
        OR OBJECTPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_SCHEMA) + '.'
                                    + QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_NAME)),
                          N'IsSchemaBound') = 0

        EXEC (
              @sql
            )
