INFORMATION_SCHEMA的缺点。它还包括系统表，如dtproperties和MSpeer_…表，没有办法把它们和你自己的表区分开来。

我建议使用sys。对象(已弃用的sysobjects视图的新版本)，它支持排除系统表:

select *
from sys.objects
where type = 'U'      -- User tables
and is_ms_shipped = 0 -- Exclude system tables

SELECT name 
FROM sysobjects 
WHERE xtype='U' 
ORDER BY name;

(SQL Server 2000标准;SQL Server 2005仍然支持。)

USE YourDBName
GO 
SELECT *
FROM sys.Tables
GO

OR

USE YourDBName
GO
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
GO

感谢Ray Vega，他的响应给出了数据库中的所有用户表…

Exec sp_msforeachtable 'print " ?“‘

Sp_helptext显示了底层查询，它总结为…

select * from dbo.sysobjects o 
join sys.all_objects syso on o.id =  syso.object_id  
where OBJECTPROPERTY(o.id, 'IsUserTable') = 1 
and o.category & 2 = 0 

SELECT TABLE_NAME 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
WHERE TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE' 
ORDER BY TABLE_NAME

要删除复制添加的表和微软添加的任何其他表，请运行以下命令:

SELECT s.NAME SchemaName, t.NAME TableName
FROM [dbname].SYS.tables t
INNER JOIN [dbname].SYS.SCHEMAS s
ON t.SCHEMA_ID = s.SCHEMA_ID
WHERE t.is_ms_shipped=0 and type_desc = 'USER_TABLE'
ORDER BY s.NAME, t.NAME
