Question

The following statement will return all the CHECK constraints.

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS WHERE CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'CHECK'

How do I get the expression? For example, I want to see the actually constraint, such as ([ApplicationId]=(8)), being applied to a table.

Thanks!

Answer 1

is this what you are looking for?

SELECT tc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA, tc.CONSTRAINT_NAME, tc.TABLE_NAME, cc.CHECK_CLAUSE
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[CHECK_CONSTRAINTS] cc
     INNER JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS tc 
       ON  cc.CONSTRAINT_NAME = tc.CONSTRAINT_NAME 
       AND cc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = tc.TABLE_SCHEMA
