sys.sysobjects (Transact-SQL)

Contains one row for each object that is created within a database, such as a constraint, default, log, rule, and stored procedure.

Important

This SQL Server 2000 system table is included as a view for backward compatibility. We recommend that you use the current SQL Server system views instead. To find the equivalent system view or views, see Mapping SQL Server 2000 System Tables to SQL Server 2005 System Views. This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

Column name	Data type	Description
name	sysname	Object name
id	int	Object identification number
xtype	char(2)	Object type. Can be one of the following object types: AF = Aggregate function (CLR) C = CHECK constraint D = Default or DEFAULT constraint F = FOREIGN KEY constraint L = Log FN = Scalar function FS = Assembly (CLR) scalar-function FT = Assembly (CLR) table-valued function IF = In-lined table-function IT = Internal table P = Stored procedure PC = Assembly (CLR) stored-procedure PK = PRIMARY KEY constraint (type is K) RF = Replication filter stored procedure S = System table SN = Synonym SQ = Service queue TA = Assembly (CLR) DML triggerTF = Table function TR = SQL DML Trigger TT = Table type U = User table UQ = UNIQUE constraint (type is K) V = View X = Extended stored procedure
uid	smallint	Schema ID of the owner of the object. For databases upgraded from an earlier version of SQL Server, the schema ID is equal to the user ID of the owner. Important If you use any of the following SQL Server DDL statements, you must use the sys.objects catalog view instead of sys.sysobjects. CREATE | ALTER | DROP USER CREATE | ALTER | DROP ROLE CREATE | ALTER | DROP APPLICATION ROLE CREATE SCHEMA ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON OBJECT Overflows or returns NULL if the number of users and roles exceeds 32,767.
