SQL Server: T-SQL Script to change Schema of all the Tables

This article is half-done without your Comment! *** Please share your thoughts via Comment ***

In this post, I am sharing one T-SQL script to change the schema name of all the tables in a SQL Server Database.

When you require to alter your database schema name and you have a large number of tables, you can use this kind of script to alter the schema name.

First, you need to create one new schema and you can replace [New_Schema_Name] by your newly created schema name. You can also add a table filter in the cursor main query.

DECLARE @SQLCMD VARCHAR(500)
DECLARE CHANGESCHEMA CURSOR
 
FOR SELECT TABNAME FROM (SELECT '['+B.NAME+'].['+A.NAME+']' TABNAME FROM SYS.TABLES A
INNER JOIN SYS.SCHEMAS B ON A.SCHEMA_ID= B.SCHEMA_ID) T
OPEN CHANGESCHEMA
FETCH NEXT FROM CHANGESCHEMA INTO @TABNAME
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @SQLCMD= 'ALTER SCHEMA [New_Schema_Name] TRANSFER '+@TABNAME
PRINT @SQLCMD
EXEC(@SQLCMD)
FETCH NEXT FROM CHANGESCHEMA INTO @TABNAME
END
CLOSE CHANGESCHEMA
DEALLOCATE CHANGESCHEMA
