View Dependences in SQL

In Recent one of my project I need to change the column data type. At the same time I need to change the all object the table of column dependences. We find best solution best for SQL SERVER 2008 onwards this is known as View Dependences.

Step -1:

Create sample table.

CREATE TABLE STUDENT
(
ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
STUDENTNAME VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL ,
LIVINGLOCATION VARCHAR(100) NULL
)

Step-2:

Create some sample procedures (or) views (or) functions (or) triggers.

CREATE PROCEDURE Get_Student
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM STUDENT
END
-----------------------------

CREATE PROCEDURE Get_StudentBy_ID
(@ID INT=NULL )
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM STUDENT WHERE ID=@ID
END
-----------------------------
CREATE VIEW V_GetStudent
AS
SELECT * FROM STUDENT

Step-3:
Right click on the table in Object Explorer.





















Click on View Dependencies. Object Dependencies window will be opened.






















In above Object Dependencies window we have seen 2 options.

1.     Objects that depend on Student table – means Objects that depends up on student table that may be Procedures, Functions, Views, Trigger...Etc.

2.     Objects on which Student depends.
