Does any one know what command(s) I can use from a SQL prompt to tell me what tables are cruuently residing in a particular database. I'm looking for something along the lines of "select list_of_all_tables from tempdb", which can be applied to any valid db on the system.
Hi, I got a request from a devloper asking, how can he find out what tables his stored procedure his using, so he can remove unwanted SP which are using old tables in the database.
Hello Everyone and thanks for your help in advance. I am working on an application that connects to SQL Server. I need to find out if there is any way (I know there is, not sure how) to retrieve a list of tables within a database and also, a way to retrieve a list of databases within a server. I am using VB.Net in a web application. Any help on this owuld be greatly appreciated.
I'm brain-dead today, sadly. If it weren't for IE remembering previous entries, I don't know if my name and email would have made it into the header correct :-)
I want the SQL command that lists the names of all user tables.
Alternatively, I have the following problematic Access 2000 code:
Public Sub ListAllTables() Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog Dim tbl As New ADOX.Table Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection Dim i As Integer, j As Integer Dim vgRet As Variant Dim intPrefixLen As Integer Dim strAppend As String
For j = (cat.Tables.Count - 1) To 0 Step -1 Set tbl = cat.Tables(j) With tbl Debug.Print tbl.Name vgRet = SysCmd(acSysCmdSetStatus, tbl.Name) End With Next
Set tbl = Nothing Set cnn = Nothing Set cat = Nothing DoCmd.Hourglass False vgRet = SysCmd(acSysCmdSetStatus, " ") End Sub
This code runs fine against an MDB but against SQL it includes all the views, rather than just the tables. If you have a fix for this, that will do just fine!
Sometimes, when a try to list tables or view (or access Management, etc) Enterprise Manager hungs up. Using SELECT * FROM SYSOBECTS also freezes the process. But the SQLServer is operational for data updates and retrieves.
I'm very new in SQL Server. Please help me to combine the connection string to the server. 62.33.197.7 login: sa pwd: S#15trLdatabase What would be the connection string then? And can I get the tables names if I have the connection string?
// C - Categories, P - Parameters, CP_Link - linkage table between C and P
// Basically, it is a list of features belonging to a particular category.
DROP TABLE [C]; CREATE TABLE [C] ( ID_CAutoinc, Name varchar(32), PRIMARY KEY( ID_C )
[code]....
OK, this works fine, but I want to get a list of parameters (from P table) which holds only those items that linked to all categories requested. In other words, I want only 'leg' and 'hand', but not the 'beard', because 'girls' not linked to 'beard'.Only common features for all of categories listed "IN (,,,)" wanted.

Hi All. I'm an Oracle DBA who's currently being asked to look at a SqlServer Database. I need a list of columns per table, but am having trouble. I'll admit I might be being lazy here, but I'm in a hurry and using the valueable resources available to me!! Would really appreciate the sql i need to copy into the query window. Much obliged!! I need........ Table A Column1 Datatype Column2 Datatype Table B Column1 Datatype Column2 Datatype etc.... Many thanks.
I guess it's possible to do that, because in SQL Server Management Studio, all things(such as Tables,Triggers, Indexes, Constraints, Keys) are displayed in the TreeView.
But I am quite don't understand how to do that with T-SQL.
I want to return a list of user tables from a database where the rowcount is 0. This will be a 3 step process: (1) truncate all 'New%' tables, (2) load data via ODBC/DTS into 'New%' tables, (3) list all 'New%' tables with zero rows (i.e. those that didn't get loaded, as all tables in the ODBC data source contain data).
I've tried: select left(s2.name,32) as TableName, max(s1.rows) as Records from sysindexes s1 inner join sysobjects s2 on s1.id=s2.id where type = 'U' and s2.name like 'New%' group by s2.name HAVING max(rows) = 0 ORDER BY TableName but of course there are multiple rows in sysindexes and the routine does not reliably return the correct list; for example the data in sysobjects & sysindexes, without the max and group by, might look like: TableNameRows NewARTxn0 NewARTxn1214800 NewARTxn1214800 NewARTxn1214800 NewARTxn1214800 NewARTxn1214800 NewARTxn1214800 I was hoping to come up with a single T-SQL statement that I could use in an xp_sendmail situation to email me the results.
The following returns all base tables within the database of type "varchar":
Code: SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME FROM mydb.information_schema.columns WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'master' AND TABLE_CATALOG = 'mydb' AND DATA_TYPE IN('varchar')" AND TABLE_NAME IN( SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM mydb.information_schema.tables WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' AND TABLE_CATALOG = 'mydb' AND TABLE_SCHEMA = 'master')
What I then want to do is... For each of these results:
Code: select [COLUMN_NAME] from [TABLE_SCHEMA].[TABLE_NAME] WHERE ID = 'test'
Is it possible to do this in one SQL command? Or do I manually have to do it for each in the list from my first query?
