我接受了卡西夫的回答，把所有的答案结合在一起。奇怪的是，有时我在其中一个选择中找到了结果，而在另一个选择中却没有。为了安全起见，当我在寻找某个东西时，我会运行这3个。希望这能有所帮助:

DECLARE @SearchText varchar(1000) = 'mytext';

SELECT DISTINCT SPName 
FROM (
    (SELECT ROUTINE_NAME SPName
        FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES 
        WHERE ROUTINE_DEFINITION LIKE '%' + @SearchText + '%' 
        AND ROUTINE_TYPE='PROCEDURE')
    UNION ALL
    (SELECT OBJECT_NAME(id) SPName
        FROM SYSCOMMENTS 
        WHERE [text] LIKE '%' + @SearchText + '%' 
        AND OBJECTPROPERTY(id, 'IsProcedure') = 1 
        GROUP BY OBJECT_NAME(id))
    UNION ALL
    (SELECT OBJECT_NAME(object_id) SPName
        FROM sys.sql_modules
        WHERE OBJECTPROPERTY(object_id, 'IsProcedure') = 1
        AND definition LIKE '%' + @SearchText + '%')
) AS T
ORDER BY T.SPName

试试下面的代码:

DECLARE @SearchText NVARCHAR(2000) = N'YourText';
SELECT   DISTINCT SCHEMA_NAME(o.schema_id),o.name,[text] AS MainTextProc
FROM     sys.syscomments AS c
         INNER JOIN sys.objects AS o ON c.id = o.[object_id]
         INNER JOIN sys.schemas AS s ON o.schema_id = s.schema_id
WHERE    c.[text] LIKE '%'+ @SearchText +'%'
ORDER BY  SCHEMA_NAME(o.schema_id),o.[name]

create Procedure [dbo].[TextFinder]
(@Text varchar(500),@Type varchar(2)=NULL) 
AS
BEGIN



SELECT DISTINCT o.name AS ObjectName,
CASE o.xtype

WHEN 'C' THEN 'CHECK constraint'

WHEN 'D' THEN 'Default or DEFAULT constraint'

WHEN 'F' THEN 'FOREIGN KEY constraint'

WHEN 'FN' THEN 'Scalar function'

WHEN 'IF' THEN 'In-lined table-function'

WHEN 'K' THEN 'PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraint'

WHEN 'L' THEN 'Log'

WHEN 'P' THEN 'Stored procedure'

WHEN 'R' THEN 'Rule'

WHEN 'RF' THEN 'Replication filter stored procedure'

WHEN 'S' THEN 'System table'

WHEN 'TF' THEN 'Table function'

WHEN 'TR' THEN 'Trigger'`enter code here`

WHEN 'U' THEN 'User table'

WHEN 'V' THEN 'View'

WHEN 'X' THEN 'Extended stored procedure'

ELSE o.xtype

END AS ObjectType,

ISNULL( p.Name, '[db]') AS Location

FROM syscomments c

INNER JOIN sysobjects o ON c.id=o.id

LEFT JOIN sysobjects p ON o.Parent_obj=p.id

WHERE c.text LIKE '%' + @Text + '%' and

o.xtype = case when @Type IS NULL then o.xtype  else @Type end

ORDER BY Location, ObjectName

END

我使用这个脚本。如果您将XML Comments更改为显示为黄色背景上的黑色文本，则可以在结果的XML列中突出显示您正在寻找的文本。(工具->选项->环境->字体和颜色[显示项:XML注释]

SELECT s.name + '.' + o.name ProcedureName
, c.text ProcedureSteps
FROM   sys.syscomments c 
INNER JOIN
sys.objects o 
ON 
c.id = o.object_id
INNER JOIN
sys.schemas s 
ON 
o.schema_id = s.schema_id
WHERE  o.type = 'P'
AND c.text LIKE N'%XXXX%'
ORDER BY s.name + '.' + o.name
, c.colid

该查询返回在存储过程中引用“XXXX”的任何存储过程的名称和内容。

这在查找引用特定表/视图/过程的过程时非常有用

对于任何更新于SQL server 2000的SQL server:

SELECT object_name = OBJECT_NAME(sm.object_id), o.type_desc, sm.definition  
FROM sys.sql_modules AS sm  
JOIN sys.objects AS o ON sm.object_id = o.object_id  
WHERE sm.definition like '%searchString%'  
ORDER BY  o.type, o.name, o.object_id

如果有人被SQL server 2000卡住，表sql_modules不存在，所以你会使用syscomments，你会得到多个存储过程的记录大于4000个字符，但它们会有相同的c.number字段，所以你可以把这些部分组合在一起，以获得完整的存储过程文本:

    Select o.id, c.number, o.name, c.text  
    from syscomments c 
    inner join sysobjects o on o.id = c.id 
    where c.encrypted = 0 and o.type = 'P'  
      and c.id in  
     (Select id from syscomments where text like '%searchtext%')
    order by objecttype, o.name, o.id, c.number, c.colid
