sys.numbered_procedures (Transact-SQL)

Contains a row for each SQL Server stored procedure that was created as a numbered procedure. This does not show a row for the base (number = 1) stored procedure. Entries for the base stored procedures can be found in views such as sys.objects and sys.procedures.

Important

Numbered procedures are deprecated in SQL Server 2005. Use of numbered procedures is discouraged. A DEPRECATION_ANNOUNCEMENT event is fired when a query that uses this catalog view is compiled.

Column name	Data type	Description
object_id	int	ID of the object of the stored procedure.
procedure_number	smallint	Number of this procedure within the object, 2 or greater.
definition	nvarchar(max)	The SQL Server text that defines this procedure. NULL = encrypted.

Note

XML and CLR parameters are not supported for numbered procedures.
