I have a test environment for a database that I want to reload with new data at the start of a testing cycle. I am not interested in rebuilding the entire database- just simply ‘re-setting’ the data.

What is the best way to remove all the data from all the tables using TSQL? Are there system stored procedures, views, etc. that can be used? I do not want to manually create and maintain truncate table statements for each table- I would prefer it to be dynamic.

    For SQL 2005,

    EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'TRUNCATE TABLE ?' 

    Couple more links for 2000 and 2005/2008..
