Dose sp_helptext loss something?

I am using sp_helptext to generate script of stored procedure. However someone said sp_helptext loss something if stored procedure is big. That means the script is not completed. Is it true?
Thanks
ZYTJust curious, why not use Enterprise Manager to right-click on the stored procedure, then go to All Tasks -> Generate SQL Script...?

Then you can punch the "preview" button and then the "copy" button to get the script onto your clipboard.|||Thanks for reply.
