How to find list of indexes in a database ?

Found very good options at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/765867/list-of-all-index-index-columns-in-sql-server-db

The ones which I liked most are :


1.
DECLARE @IndexInfo  TABLE (index_name         varchar(250)
                          ,index_description  varchar(250)
                          ,index_keys         varchar(250))
INSERT INTO @IndexInfo exec sp_msforeachtable 'sp_helpindex ''?'''
select * from @IndexInfo

This does not return table name, but if you are sure you can makeout table name from
index name then this is sufficient, short and sweet.

NOTICE this sp : sp_msforeachtable

2. Following one is also good, but uses a loop and less readable than above.
But it returns table name also.


DECLARE @IndexInfoTemp TABLE (index_name varchar(250)
,index_description varchar(250)
,index_keys varchar(250)
)
DECLARE @IndexInfo TABLE (table_name sysname
,index_name varchar(250)
,index_description varchar(250)
,index_keys varchar(250)
)
DECLARE @Tables Table (RowID int not null identity(1,1)
,TableName sysname
)
DECLARE @MaxRow int
DECLARE @CurrentRow int
DECLARE @CurrentTable sysname
INSERT INTO @Tables
SELECT
DISTINCT t.name
FROM sys.indexes i
INNER JOIN sys.tables t ON i.object_id = t.object_id
WHERE i.Name IS NOT NULL
SELECT @MaxRow=@@ROWCOUNT,@CurrentRow=1
WHILE @CurrentRow<=@MaxRow
BEGIN
SELECT @CurrentTable=TableName FROM @Tables WHERE RowID=@CurrentRow
INSERT INTO @IndexInfoTemp
exec sp_helpindex @CurrentTable
INSERT INTO @IndexInfo
(table_name , index_name , index_description , index_keys)
SELECT
@CurrentTable , index_name , index_description , index_keys
FROM @IndexInfoTemp
DELETE FROM @IndexInfoTemp
SET @CurrentRow=@CurrentRow+1
END --WHILE
SELECT * from @IndexInfo
