SqlServer table structure with Information_Schema (See related posts)

SELECT COLUMN_NAME,
       DATA_TYPE,
       CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH,
       NUMERIC_PRECISION,
       NUMERIC_SCALE,
       IS_NULLABLE,
       COLUMNPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(TABLE_NAME), COLUMN_NAME, 'IsIdentity') AS IS_AUTOINCREMENT,
       COLUMN_DEFAULT
FROM   INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE  TABLE_NAME = 'xxxxxxxx'
ORDER BY ORDINAL_POSITION

Edit: The "system_function_schema.fn_datadictionary" snippet will create a system function in SQL Server that returns a data dictionary for any database on the server (http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/posts/show/1175).
