SQL Server - Return SCHEMA for sysobjects

Question

How to I get the SCHEMA when doing a select on sysobjects?

I am modifing a stored procedure called SearchObjectsForText which returns only the Name

On Sql Server 2005 (and above) you can use the sys.objects view:

select 
  name                    as  ObjectName,     
  schema_Name(schema_id)  as  SchemaName
from 
  sys.objects

In Sql Server 2000 (and below), "schema" had a different conceptual meaning. Note from MSDN:

In earlier releases of SQL Server, databases could contain an entity called a "schema", but that entity was effectively a database user. SQL Server 2005 is the first release of SQL Server in which a schema is both a container and a namespace.
