Shnugo的答案是唯一一个工作在Azure的Externa表。(1) Azure SQL根本不支持sp_MSforeachtable;External表的partitions总是0。

你可以试试这个:

SELECT  OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME(ps.object_Id) AS [schemaname],
        OBJECT_NAME(ps.object_id) AS [tablename],
        row_count AS [rows]
FROM sys.dm_db_partition_stats ps
WHERE OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME(ps.object_Id) <> 'sys' AND ps.index_id < 2
ORDER BY 
        OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME(ps.object_Id),
        OBJECT_NAME(ps.object_id)

如果您使用MySQL >4。X你可以用这个:

select TABLE_NAME, TABLE_ROWS from information_schema.TABLES where TABLE_SCHEMA="test";

请记住，对于某些存储引擎，TABLE_ROWS只是一个近似值。

我认为最短、最快、最简单的方法是:

SELECT
    object_name(object_id) AS [Table],
    SUM(row_count) AS [Count]
FROM
    sys.dm_db_partition_stats
WHERE
    --object_schema_name(object_id) = 'dbo' AND 
    index_id < 2
GROUP BY
    object_id

USE DatabaseName
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

SELECT 
    T.NAME AS 'TABLE NAME',
    P.[ROWS] AS 'NO OF ROWS'
FROM SYS.TABLES T 
INNER JOIN  SYS.PARTITIONS P ON T.OBJECT_ID=P.OBJECT_ID;
