>Thanks. Really I'm going agaisnt syscolumns and not the actual tables for that data.
I'm confused. Are you looking to change the datatype from decimal(20,0) to decimal(38,9)? I don't think you can do it be changing syscolumns.
Now, if you want to find the tables that need to be modified, try using information_schema.columns.
