This is great! But these still use sysobjects which should be replaced with sys.objects.

I used this for the run the following command in Azure. It worked fine. Thanks for sharing this.

exec sp_MSforeachtable @command1 = 'DBCC CHECKIDENT (''?'')'

Thanks, used this script when I needed an urgent replacement for sp_MSforeachtable.

Now I've switched to a simpler script for my specific purposes. See example: restore-indexes.sql (there you can change @Sql to the one you want)
