Auto scripting SPs, perhaps concatenating text fields...

Hi,

I'm trying to get the text of all my SPs saved into text (*.sql) files. My first thought was to use sp_helptext and bcp the table to a text file but this isn't working (see my other post) so thought I'd try another method.

I can get the code from syscomment.text and concatenate the varchar(8000) field together in a text field. Unfortunately this isn't as easy as just text = text + newtext, how is this done?

Or am I doing it all comletely the wrong way? BTW, I have over 150 SPs so I can't save them individually.

Thanks!

Nick

Why don't you use EM or SSMS for that? Both utilities have feature to scrip database objects.|||

I've just found the "create one file per object" option. Thanks gavrilenko_s!
