can u plss help me!!!!!!!!!

you can use:

sp_tables

OR

you can use:

select * from information_schema.tables

OR

You can use:

select * from sys.tables

OR

you can use:

select * from sys.objects where type=’U’

Note: type=’U’ not use xtype

So all these are different way of getting all tables from sql server.

you can use any of this query to get all the tables from a particular database

select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
or
select * from sysobjects where xtype=’U’
or
select * from sys.tables

you can use the following query.

select *from information_schema.columns where table_name=’ITEM’ order by column_name

I tried to run the following query for display columnames in Ascending order from table Item:-

exec sp_columns Item order by Column_name Asc

I get the following error:-
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword ‘order’.

How shhould I construct the query in order to get the desired results?

I think there is no any build in table or any built in function in sql server through you can count number of records in all the tables.

But i have created a logic through you can get number of records from all tables….

You can use this:

declare @dynamicqry as varchar(1000)
create table temp(tid int)
declare @startvalue as int
declare @endvalue as int
set @startvalue=1
select @endvalue=count(*) from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
while @startvalue<@endvalue
begin
declare @tablename as varchar(100)
select @tablename=Table_name from (select Table_name,ROW_NUMBER() over(order by table_name asc) 'RowNum' from information_schema.tables) tt where RowNum=@startvalue
set @dynamicqry='insert temp select count(*) from '+@tablename
print @dynamicqry
exec(@dynamicqry)
set @startvalue+=1
end
select SUM(tid) from temp

Select RNo+2 As RNo,FName From DBtab
Where FName=’lia’

Select * from table name
where Fname like ‘%a%’ and Fname like ‘_li’

i hope you like it

Not a proper way but i think u can use

declare @tableName as varchar(100)
declare @countValues as int
select @tableName=name from sys.tables
select @countValues=COUNT(*) from sys.tables
declare @startvalue as int
set @startvalue=1
while @startvalue<@countValues
begin
declare @exe as varchar(100)
set @exe='sp_help '+@tableName+''
print @exe
exec(@exe)
set @startvalue=@startvalue+1
end

after executing these statements you can see all tables structure info. If you want to combine all data into single resultset you can use temporary tables etc..

If you want to see structure of all tables you can use:

select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS where TABLE_NAME in(select TABLE_NAME from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES)

If you want to see index details then you can use:

select name,type_desc from sys.objects where type=’PK’

can we go for sp_msforeachtable???
can u plz provide exact query for same..
