Have you or anyone else on the list used this script?

Successfully? More than once?

Here is something that was posted before - I haven't tried it so I don't know how well it works (if it does).

I just found this script on another site and thought this group would benefit from it, as we are always looking for usefult scripts... apologies if the formatting is bad.

Here is a script that renames foreign keys from system-assigned constraint names to more intelligible names. The names use the current table name and the referenced table name. This greatly improves readability, especially for
error messages.
