Do you mean parsing the string *in* a sql server stored proc?

Hi John,

i will clarify you what i exactly need in the above query am using two tables.
By seeing that query i can find out which table i am using and how many tables are am using. Now what i want is am storing a queries which are using in sql server (ssms). I want to know in that query how many tables are there and which tables those are but my problem is i can't see that query.
So with out seeing that query how could i find out the tables of used in that query.

"So with out seeing that query how could i find out the tables of used in that query"

You can't. A query could return results from any number of tables with multiple joins and subqueries or it could return results from a view which is comprised of data from multiple table or views.

If you had access to SQL Profiler on the database server you could follow the trace.

Hi Mark,

Yes, your are right. That's not a possible to find tables if i used views in my query but i want to find tables from query which doesn't used views in the queries. I am taking a queries which doesn't have a views.

It doesn't matter whether the query uses views or not. If you don't have the SQL there is no way to know exactly which tables where used. The results only return the columns requested.
