Hi All, I have created one table using below command:

create table Table1(
    Id int Not Null 
        Foreign key 
        references Table2(Id)  
        on delete cascade 
        on update cascade,
    UserName nvarchar(150),
    TimeInSeconds int Not Null 

    primary key(Id,TimeInSeconds)
);

But now I want to drop the foreign key. As i havent given constraint name I cant use:

Alter table <tablename>
drop foreign key <foreign key name>

Is there any way? Pls help.

You can find the name of the constraint in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS

select CONSTRAINT_NAME
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
where TABLE_NAME = 'Table1'

+1. Quick draw. I was going for: select * from syscontraints where xtype = 'F' and name like '%table1%'

A: 

If you just look at the table in enterprise manager / management studio you will be able to see the list of keys and delete it from there.
