Question

I continue to get this error:

Object '%s' cannot be renamed because the object participates in enforced dependencies 

I need to find a script that will help me to find all the dependencies that there is with this table. I will need to drop them, rename, then bring them back.

Answer 1

To disable all contraints

sp_msforeachtable 'ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT all' go sp_msforeachtable 'ALTER TABLE ? DISABLE TRIGGER  all' go 

To Re-enable

sp_msforeachtable'ALTER TABLE ? CHECK CONSTRAINT all' go sp_msforeachtable 'ALTER TABLE ? ENABLE TRIGGER  all' go 

You should easily be able to adapt this to just one table.
