Hi Guys,
Need favor.
Here is the e.g. I am using TABLEA.ID (as an e.g) in my SP.I am not sure how many SP I am using TABLEA.ID. What i want to update TABLEA.ID TO TABLEB.ID from ALL SPs in my database.
Please let me know if my question is not clear. Any help would be great help.
Thank You.

You can use the below mentioned query to find all un-encrypted routines using "TABLEA.ID"
SELECTOBJECT_NAME(object_id) AS RoutineName
FROMsys.sql_modules AS sm
WHEREsm.definition LIKE '%TABLEA.ID%'
You can then manually changes all the SP's
I would suggest you to do some documentation of the procedures involved and make the changes carefully even if it takes a lot of time.

Unfortunately there is no magic wand to do this, so its a pain staking trawl through all SP's, as people may have used Aliases, etc.
You might be able to get an Idea of the scale by using the
Select * from sys.syscomments
WHERE [TEXT] Like '%TABLEA.ID%'
But for long SP's you may need to link these together using the Id and colId references.
Select distinct
SCHEMA_NAME(schema_id) AS [Schema_name]
, Objects.name Object_Name
from sys.syscomments
INNER JOIN sys.objects on objects.object_id=syscomments.id
You could reverse engineer the database into an SQL server Project if you have VS2008 GDR or VS2010 Premium (I think).

Also, be sure to check: sys.sql_expression_dependencies.
And not just in its own db but in other dbs, esp. on the same instance.
And the usual disclaimer: even that isn't guaranteed to be every reference, of course. But it's probably the best list of references to that column you can get.

SELECT obj.Name SPName, sc.TEXT SPText
FROM sys.syscomments sc
INNER JOIN sys.objects obj ON sc.Id = obj.OBJECT_ID
WHERE sc.TEXT LIKE '%' + 'Name Your Column Here' + '%'
AND TYPE = 'P'
