List All Extended Properties For All Objects In A Database

By Lori Brown | ColumnStore

Jan 25

I was recently looking at a way to easily identify if any objects in a database were In-Memory. Since many times I am tasked with taking on systems that I have never seen before, I have learned that it is important to have ways of checking to see if some of the more specialized features of SQL are in use. With this information, I am better prepared to manage a new SQL instance without inadvertently causing issues or ignoring something that should be on my DBA radar. So, finding all things that are In-Memory is important since more and more of my clients are using newer versions of SQL.

I can easily find tables and indexes that are column store by using this query

— Tables with columnstore indexes — SQL 2012 +

select t.name as TablesWithColumnstoreInx, i.name as ColumnStoreIndex

from sys.indexes i

inner join sys.tables t

on i.object_id = t.object_id

where i.type = 5 or i.type = 6

But I was kind of stumped to find a good way to identify natively compiled stored procedures since as far as I could tell, those are identified only through extended properties. After doing some research, I found someone who had the idea to load up all of the extended properties into a table so that it could be joined to the sys.objects table to pass object_id’s into the OBJECTPROPERTYEX function and thereby returning a list of all extended properties for all objects. Unfortunately, I cannot find the original forum post that was so helpful again and am unable to provide a hat tip to the correct person. But, here is what I have settled on:

USE WideWorldImporters

DROP TABLE #ObjectPropertyEXList

 

I have verified that all extended properties that are loaded into #ObjectPropertyEXList are from the most recent list on Microsoft (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/objectpropertyex-transact-sql ) and have also tried to provide some extra ways to filter for data so read the comments carefully.

Here are my results when I look only for objects that are natively compiled:

And here are the results when I list all extended properties on a single object:

Hey look!! The Colors_Archive table is a temporal table!! Good to know!!

If the person who was so helpful in creating the extended properties table will let me know who they are, I will be happy to extend proper credit where it is due. I really could not find the source again despite several tries.

Hopefully you, the reader, will find this helpful. If you make improvements and would like to pass them along, please feel free to let me know and I will update this post with your ideas.
