Hi,

I have a schema called "Emp" and all the tables binds to this schema. Now I have created a new schema called "Employee" and wants to bind this new schema "Employee" instead of "Emp". How can I do this with minimal effort.

Also old schema "Emp" is used in my stored procedure and views with tables. I also wants to replace in those stored proc and views.Is there any good script/tool is available for this.

Thanks..

This is your answer my friend :)

sp_msforeachtable 'ALTER SCHEMA test TRANSFER ?'
this will change the schema to test .You can change it to employee.

make sure you are in the right database context.

Whenever I recommend using sp_MSForEachTable I always include a link to this article which explains the parameters of the procedure and how it works.

I would script out all my procedures, functions, and views and then do a search and replace to change Emp. to Employee.

Hi,

Try this:

set the o/p mode to text in SSMS .. then run the following .....

SELECT 'ALTER SCHEMA Employee TRANSFER ' + TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'EMP'

sp_msforeachtable

this is an undocumented procedure ... it is very handy but not recommended by Microsoft.

Also old schema "Emp" is used in my stored procedure and views with tables. I also wants to replace in those stored proc and views.Is there any good script/tool is available for this.

I would go with what Jack suggested ....

I would script out all my procedures, functions, and views and then do a search and replace to change Emp. to Employee.

Hope this helps ... Smile

Happy 4th of JULY !

Thanks,

HTH,
