According to my task I have to migrate data from Sybase Adaptive Anywhere to MS SQL Server. Before migration data need delete data in target database. For this purpose, of course, we can use classic command like DELETE FROM ..... for each table or use CURSOR it is more proffesional. I use more nice solution with stored procedure sp_msForEachTable. Pay attention that this procedure is undocumented and may go away or be modified at any time.
Example:
use HeatService;
exec sp_msforeachtable @command1 = "delete from ?"
or delete all except dbo.sysdiagrams
use HeatService;
exec sp_msforeachtable @command1 = "if '?' <> '[dbo].[sysdiagrams]'
begin
delete from ?
end"
Also you have to know about sp_msForEachdDB sister of sp_msForEachTable.
Getting list databases: Example:
use HeatService;
exec sp_msforeachtable @command1 = "delete from ?"
or delete all except dbo.sysdiagrams
use HeatService;
exec sp_msforeachtable @command1 = "if '?' <> '[dbo].[sysdiagrams]'
begin
delete from ?
end"
Also you have to know about sp_msForEachdDB sister of sp_msForEachTable.
exec sp_msforeachdb @command1= "select '?'"
