>Hi All, I have a couple of hundred tables in SS that have a prefix of IOM in their name, they all have the same structure which is a single column. What I want to do is create a master table containing all the records of these tables - obvously I don't want to do this manually - any ideas ?

Try:

declare @SQL nvarchar(max)

select @SQL = coalesce(@SQL + CHAR(13),'') + ';INSERT INTO Master SELECT * FROM ' + 
quotename(Table_Schema) + '.' + quotename(Table_Name)  from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Tables
where Table_Name LIKE 'IOM%'

--print @SQL -- to verify

EXECUTE (@SQL)
