  • It might be in the default trace, I don't know if rename operations are caught there. If not and you had no custom traces running, there's no way to tell for sure.

  • You can find some of this information from right-clicking on the database and selecting reports --> standard reports --> Schema Changes History.

    It can be a tricky to track down specific changes though.

    This information comes from the default trace, and is another way of viewing it rather than querying it directly

    Actually I dont think table name changes are recorded so this may not be of much use sorry.

  • Here's some info on the default trace.
