| There's a shortcut you can use in SQL Server:SELECT Object_name(id) AS tbl, rows FROM sysindexes WHERE id>100 AND indid<2 ORDER BY tblTwo things:1. Row counts in sysindexes can be incorrect, you should run DBCC UPDATEUSAGE periodically to make sure they're up-to-date.2. This query may not work in future releases of SQL Server. There will be significant changes to system tables in SQL2005. |
