Error deleting all tables “DELETE failed because the following SET options have incorrect settings: 'QUOTED_IDENTIFIER'”

Question

I have a script to delete all tables in my database that looks like this:

-- Disable all constraints
EXEC sp_MSForEachTable \'ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT all         


        

Answer 1

Add the SET options to the delete call.

These still apply to the other items mentioned in the error, even though you disabled FKs.

This will work around any saved or environment settings

Edit, after comment

EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON; DELETE FROM ?'
