StoredProcedures Collection

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.

The StoredProcedures collection contains StoredProcedure objects that reference the system and user-defined stored procedures of a Microsoft SQL Server database.

Remarks

With the StoredProcedures collection, you can:

  • Create a stored procedure.

  • Remove a stored procedure.

For more information about creating stored procedures using the StoredProcedure object and StoredProcedures collection, see the StoredProcedure Object section.

To remove a stored procedure

  1. Get the StoredProcedure object referencing the targeted stored procedure from the StoredProcedures collection using the Item or ItemByID method. When extracting a StoredProcedure object using the name of the referenced stored procedure, use the owner name to qualify the name, as in:

    Set oStoredProcedure = _
    oDatabase.StoredProcedures("[Sales By Year]", "dbo")
    
  2. Use the Remove method of the StoredProcedure object to remove the targeted stored procedure.

When using the Item or Remove method, the StoredProcedures collection supports member identification using either name or ordinal reference syntax. For example:

Set oStoredProcedure = _
oDatabase.StoredProcedures("[Ten Most Expensive Products]")

Or:

Set oStoredProcedure = oDatabase.StoredProcedures(1)

Additionally, when using name-based item selection, the Item method allows owner name qualification of the targeted SQL Server stored procedure as shown earlier. When using the Remove method, the StoredProcedures collection does not support qualification of targeted object by owner name. It is suggested that you use the Item method to extract the target, and then use the Remove method of the StoredProcedure object to drop a stored procedure.

Note

Creating or removing SQL Server stored procedures by using the StoredProcedures collection requires appropriate privilege. The SQL Server login used for SQLServer object connection must be a member of the fixed role db_ddladmin or a role with greater privilege.
