SQL Server: Script to rename all Tables of a Database

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

In this post, I am sharing a T-SQL script for renaming multiple tables to a SQL Server Database.

Recently, I was doing test migration for more than 100 tables. I planned to rename those tables before migration so later I can rollback those tables.

SQL Server: Script to rename Database Name, Table Name, Column Name

I used below script for renaming multiple tables of a database where I am adding “_backup” in the table name.

DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(max)=''
 
SELECT @SQL += 'exec sp_rename ' + NAME + ',' + NAME + '_backup '
FROM sys.tables
WHERE NAME IN ( 'table_one', 'table_two', 'table_three')
 
EXEC sp_executesql @SQL
