| for getting list of all the tables you will get from Information_Schema.Tables Then using cursors you need to write the dynamic query to delete records from all the tables.. If Debugging is the process of removing Bugs then i Guess programming should be process of Adding them. |

| Drop the referential integrity constraints, truncate the tables, re-establish the constraints.Otherwise you will likely have to code your solution manually, because a simple script that uses the system tables or ms_foreachtable won't be able to account for the ordering you'll need to delete the right entries first.Why are you having to do this? You may as well drop the database and recreate it with your table creation scripts (Script them from EM if you haven't got such things.)-------Moo. :) |
