A database developer recently asked on the MSDN forums for a quick way to enable and disable all the triggers in a SQL Server 2005/2008 database. In my opinion, the quickest option is to use the undocumented stored procedure sp_MSforeachtable
To Disable All the Triggers
sp_MSforeachtable "ALTER TABLE ? DISABLE TRIGGER ALL"
To Enable All the Triggers
sp_MSforeachtable "ALTER TABLE ? ENABLE TRIGGER ALL"
Similarly to Enable and Disable all the Constraints, use this query:
sp_MSforeachtable "ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ALL"
sp_MSforeachtable "ALTER TABLE ? WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT ALL"
Thanks, I tried many different versions, including Microsoft Suggestion. Yours is the one that actually works.
