Search for a string in a procedure, trigger or fun

This is an extension of two previous scripts, this one will produce a list of ojects that contain the first parameter and not the second. The function works as a table so if the user wants to list only functions, query as: select * from fn_sys_searchobject('text1','text2') where object_type = 'function'

Question of the Day

Switching Schemas I

I run this query:

SELECT 
 s.name AS schemaname
 , o.name AS objectname
 FROM sys.objects o
 INNER JOIN sys.schemas s ON s.schema_id = o.schema_id
 WHERE o.name = 'Beer'
I get one row back for an object named dbo.beer. There is an ETL schema and both of these are nonpartitioned tables. I run this code:
ALTER TABLE dbo.beer switch TO etl.beer
What happens?
