Loop through the tables

An easier way to do this would be to loop through the tables which are not system tables and delete all records, in this way you don't need to specify each table if you have tons of tables!

What happens if you have tables with helper data in them? Lists of states? ZIP code data. Stuff like that. Those aren't system tables, but you also don't want to delete that info. Whatever way works for you is the best way. :)

I have something similar. I exclude system tables AND certain named table that I don't want to delete data from.

Yeah you could name your own tables with a prefix or suffix to automatically avoid those in a loop.
