Hi,
Here is a script that I use to pull this and some other information
mssql_select_db("$db");
$res=mssql_query("select name,id from sysobjects where type='u' order by name");
while (list($table,$id) = mssql_fetch_row($res)) {
$res2 = mssql_query("select count(*) from $table");
list($rows)=mssql_fetch_row($res2);
$res2=mssql_query("select syscolumns.name, systypes.name as type, syscolumns.length
from syscolumns join systypes on syscolumns.xtype=systypes.xusertype
where syscolumns.id =$id order by colid");
echo "<table border=1><tr><td width=200><b>$table</b><br> - ialt $rows poster</td><td width=300>";
echo "<table>";
while (list($name,$type,$size) = mssql_fetch_row($res2)) {
$res3=@mssql_query("select count(*) from $table where $name > ' '") or
$res3=mssql_query("select count(*) from $table where $name is not null");
list($comp) = mssql_fetch_row($res3);
$comp = ($rows > 0)?round($comp/$rows*100,1):100;
echo "<tr ><td height=8>$name</td><td>$type [$size] $comp % </td></tr>";
}
echo "</table></td></tr></table></body>";
}
