I read a lot of brilliant comments but using system table (SYSOBJECTS and other) is not the better choice if one is working on SQL server 2000 or 2005 where we have the information_schema views that offer the same behaviour giving us a good level of abstraction from the "implementation" into db.

I don't know how it works on other DB but I think there are similar stuffs.

Any way we are talking about common technique used to “generate code”. For instance, for MS SQL server, is available an object model form .NET version 2.0 more flexible and powerful. It’s true that it’s important having a good programming skills.

I don’t the article is good but it doesn’t express new idea or, for me, the better way to do this kind of operation.

Thanks
