Thanks in advance!
Does anyone have a Script to list all the Primary keys & Foreign Keys with table names in the database?
There are many tables in the db's & I need to find out which tables have what keys?
Regards.

You want just the names of the PK's and FK's along with the related table name?

This should do it...

 SELECT TableID   = sot.ID,
        TableName = sot.Name,
        IndexName = soi.Name,
        Type      = soi.XType --PK or F
   FROM dbo.SysObjects sot --Table Info
   LEFT OUTER JOIN
        dbo.SysObjects soi --Index Info
     ON sot.ID = soi.Parent_Obj     
  WHERE OBJECTPROPERTY(sot.ID,'IsMSShipped') = 0 --Is a user object, not an SQL Server object
    AND sot.XType = 'U' --Is a table
    AND soi.Xtype IN ('PK','F')
  ORDER BY TableName,Type DESC,IndexName

It's rude to post the same question on multiple forums:
