我觉得这个看起来比其他的好。

USE  [enter your db name here]
GO

SELECT      SCHEMA_NAME(A.schema_id) + '.' +
        --A.Name, SUM(B.rows) AS 'RowCount'  Use AVG instead of SUM
          A.Name, AVG(B.rows) AS 'RowCount'
FROM        sys.objects A
INNER JOIN sys.partitions B ON A.object_id = B.object_id
WHERE       A.type = 'U'
GROUP BY    A.schema_id, A.Name
GO

下面的SQL语句将得到数据库中所有表的行数:

CREATE TABLE #counts
(
    table_name varchar(255),
    row_count int
)

EXEC sp_MSForEachTable @command1='INSERT #counts (table_name, row_count) SELECT ''?'', COUNT(*) FROM ?'
SELECT table_name, row_count FROM #counts ORDER BY table_name, row_count DESC
DROP TABLE #counts

输出将是一个表列表及其行数。

如果你只想要整个数据库的总行数，追加:

SELECT SUM(row_count) AS total_row_count FROM #counts

将获得整个数据库中总行数的单个值。

下面是一个动态SQL方法，它也提供了模式:

DECLARE @sql nvarchar(MAX)

SELECT
    @sql = COALESCE(@sql + ' UNION ALL ', '') +
        'SELECT
            ''' + s.name + ''' AS ''Schema'',
            ''' + t.name + ''' AS ''Table'',
            COUNT(*) AS Count
            FROM ' + QUOTENAME(s.name) + '.' + QUOTENAME(t.name)
    FROM sys.schemas s
    INNER JOIN sys.tables t ON t.schema_id = s.schema_id
    ORDER BY
        s.name,
        t.name

EXEC(@sql)

如果需要，将其扩展为在实例中运行所有数据库(连接到sys.databases)是很简单的。

短而甜

sp_MSForEachTable 'DECLARE @t AS VARCHAR(MAX); 
SELECT @t = CAST(COUNT(1) as VARCHAR(MAX)) 
+ CHAR(9) + CHAR(9) + ''?'' FROM ? ; PRINT @t'

输出:

从information_schema中选择所有行。表视图，并为从该视图返回的每个条目发出count(*)语句。

declare c_tables cursor fast_forward for
select table_name from information_schema.tables

open c_tables
declare @tablename varchar(255)
declare @stmt nvarchar(2000)
declare @rowcount int
fetch next from c_tables into @tablename

while @@fetch_status = 0
begin

    select @stmt = 'select @rowcount = count(*) from ' + @tablename

    exec sp_executesql @stmt, N'@rowcount int output', @rowcount=@rowcount OUTPUT

    print N'table: ' + @tablename + ' has ' + convert(nvarchar(1000),@rowcount) + ' rows'

    fetch next from c_tables into @tablename

end

close c_tables
deallocate c_tables

这是我最喜欢的SQL 2008解决方案，它将结果放入一个“TEST”临时表，我可以使用它来排序并获得我需要的结果:

SET NOCOUNT ON 
DBCC UPDATEUSAGE(0) 
DROP TABLE #t;
CREATE TABLE #t 
( 
[name] NVARCHAR(128),
[rows] CHAR(11),
reserved VARCHAR(18), 
data VARCHAR(18), 
index_size VARCHAR(18),
unused VARCHAR(18)
) ;
INSERT #t EXEC sp_msForEachTable 'EXEC sp_spaceused ''?''' 
SELECT * INTO TEST FROM #t;
DROP TABLE #t;
SELECT  name, [rows], reserved, data, index_size, unused FROM TEST \
WHERE ([rows] > 0) AND (name LIKE 'XXX%')
