How can I list all foreign keys referencing a given table in SQL Server?

Here is how you can get list of all foreign key references using below query for all tables in your database

SELECT obj.name AS FK_NAME,
sch.name AS [schema_name],
tab1.name AS [table],
col1.name AS [column],
tab2.name AS [referenced_table],
col2.name AS [referenced_column]
FROM sys.foreign_key_columns fkc
INNER JOIN sys.objects obj
ON obj.object_id = fkc.constraint_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.tables tab1
ON tab1.object_id = fkc.parent_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.schemas sch
ON tab1.schema_id = sch.schema_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns col1
ON col1.column_id = parent_column_id

AND col1.object_id = tab1.object_id
INNER JOIN sys.tables tab2
ON tab2.object_id = fkc.referenced_object_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns col2
ON col2.column_id = referenced_column_id

AND col2.object_id = tab2.object_id


Hope this helps!!!
