SQL Server 2008: I have 1000 tables, I need to know which tables have data

Question

Is there a way in SMSS to detect whether a table has any records? I need to get a list of tables that have records. perhaps there is a sql statement that will do the trick?<

Answer 1

As your question specifically mentions SSMS you can also right click the database in object explorer and then from the short cut menu do

Reports -> Standard Reports -> Disc Usage By Table
