How can I find the last modified date, modified user of an stored procedure in SQL Server 2008?

Question

I need to find the user name of the person who modified a particular stored procedure.

How do I find out when a stored procedure was last modified or compiled in Oracle?

Answer 1

Can you try this out?

SELECT name, create_date, modify_date FROM sys.procedures

Answer 2

If you are going to need this information in the future, it may be worth looking at implementing a DDL trigger on the CREATE_PROCEDURE and ALTER_PROCEDURE DDL events

Example B from the EVENTDATA page shows a trigger logging all DDL events, with user name captured.

Answer 3

I tried the following query and it worked for me:

SELECT *
FROM sys.objects
WHERE type = 'P'
ORDER BY modify_date DESC

This query is for stored procedures.

Here what it works for me:-

DECLARE @filename VARCHAR(255) 
SELECT @FileName = SUBSTRING(path, 0, LEN(path)-CHARINDEX('\', REVERSE(path))+1) + '\Log.trc'  
FROM sys.traces   
WHERE is_default = 1;  

SELECT gt.HostName, 
       gt.ApplicationName, 
       gt.NTUserName, 
       gt.NTDomainName, 
       gt.LoginName, 
       gt.SPID, 
       gt.EventClass, 
       te.Name AS EventName,
       gt.EventSubClass,      
       gt.TEXTData, 
       gt.StartTime, 
       gt.EndTime, 
       gt.ObjectName, 
       gt.DatabaseName, 
       gt.FileName, 
       gt.IsSystem
FROM [fn_trace_gettable](@filename, DEFAULT) gt 
JOIN sys.trace_events te ON gt.EventClass = te.trace_event_id 
WHERE EventClass in (164) --AND gt.EventSubClass = 2
ORDER BY StartTime DESC;

Answer 5

Try Schema Changes History Report.

In SQl Server Management Sudio -> Right Click on server name or schema name -> Reports -> Standard Reports -> Schema Changes History

This worked for me like a charm.

Answer 6

Procedure changes are traced in the system default trace. Simply open the .trc file from your ...\MSSQL\LOG folder and search for the ALTER PROCEDURE. The only problem is that the default trace gets rewriten in time, so you can only use it for recent changes (days-weeks).
