Hmmm, I run the following:
EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ALL'
GO
EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'TRUNCATE TABLE ?' 
GO
EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'ALTER TABLE ? CHECK CONSTRAINT ALL' 
and I get
Cannot truncate table 'dbo.aspnet_Roles' because it is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.
