Where are user defined functions stored in MS SQL Server 2008?
16,598
In SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) look under the Programmability\Functions branch.
Since you asked, here is how to do it in SQL, not that it will help you if you don't have permissions.
EXEC sp_HelpText 'someUserDefinedFunction'

I want to be able to see the code associated with the User Defined Function. I can see the name etc by doing the following,
select * from information_schema.routines where routine_type='function'
Which is all fine and dandy but I can actually see the code. Do I need to do this in SQL Server Management Studio, and if so how?
Thanks for all the help, I'm a noob when it comes to IIS/MS SQL stuff.
