SQL Server- To find the record count for tables in a database

--Scenario1:
SELECT
    t.NAME AS TableName,
    --i.name as indexName,
    p.[Rows],
    sum(a.total_pages) as TotalPages,
    sum(a.used_pages) as UsedPages,
    sum(a.data_pages) as DataPages,
    (sum(a.total_pages) * 8) / 1024 as TotalSpaceMB,
    (sum(a.used_pages) * 8) / 1024 as UsedSpaceMB,
    (sum(a.data_pages) * 8) / 1024 as DataSpaceMB
FROM
    sys.tables t
INNER JOIN          sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
INNER JOIN         sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
INNER JOIN        sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id
WHERE     t.NAME NOT LIKE 'dt%' AND    i.OBJECT_ID > 255 AND      i.index_id <= 1
GROUP BY     t.NAME, i.object_id, i.index_id, i.name, p.[Rows]
ORDER BY     object_name(i.object_id)

---Scnario2:

select t.name TableName, i.rows Records
from sysobjects t, sysindexes i
where t.xtype = 'U' and i.id = t.id and i.indid in (0,1)
order by TableName;

SQL Server - Parsing a delimited string

CREATE FUNCTION ParseValues

(@String varchar(8000), @Delimiter varchar(10) )

RETURNS @RESULTS TABLE (ID int identity(1,1), Val varchar(8000))

AS

BEGIN

DECLARE @Value varchar(100)

WHILE @String is not null

BEGIN

SELECT @Value=CASE WHEN PATINDEX('%'+@Delimiter+'%',@String) >0 THEN LEFT(@String,PATINDEX('%'+@Delimiter+'%',@String)-1) ELSE @String END, @String=CASE WHEN PATINDEX('%'+@Delimiter+'%',@String) >0 THEN SUBSTRING(@String,PATINDEX('%'+@Delimiter+'%',@String)+LEN(@Delimiter),LEN(@String)) ELSE NULL END

INSERT INTO @RESULTS (Val)

SELECT @Value

END

RETURN

END

Example usage

select * from dbo.ParseValues('This|~~|is|~~|a|~~|delimited|~~|string|~~|value','|~~|')
