Hey, I'm building a quick and dirty dynamic form to edit all the columns
in a table using SQL server 2000.
My select below works, but I know I should rewrite it using the
INFORMATION_SCHEMA approach.
Can anyone help me change this select to return the same info but not
use sysobjects etc.?
Thanks!

SELECT
sysobjects.name AS table_name,
syscolumns.name AS column_name,
systypes.name AS column_type,
syscolumns.length,
syscolumns.prec,
syscolumns.scale,
syscolumns.isnullable,
sysproperties.value as label,
syscolumns.colstat & 1 as primary_key,
CASE WHEN sysforeignkeys.rkey IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END AS
foreign_key
FROM sysobjects WITH(NOLOCK)
INNER JOIN syscolumns WITH(NOLOCK) ON sysobjects.id = syscolumns.id
INNER JOIN systypes WITH(NOLOCK) ON syscolumns.xtype = systypes.xtype
LEFT OUTER JOIN sysforeignkeys WITH(NOLOCK) ON syscolumns.colid =
sysforeignkeys.fkey
AND sysobjects.id =
sysforeignkeys.fkeyID
LEFT JOIN sysproperties WITH(NOLOCK) ON sysproperties.id = syscolumns.id
AND sysproperties.smallid = syscolumns.colid
AND sysproperties.name = 'MS_Description'
WHERE sysobjects.name = @table_name
AND sysobjects.xtype = 'U' -- table
ORDER BY syscolumns.colorder
