sp_msforeachtable does not give me the right result
I want to use sp_msforeachtable to do some work for some tables in a database. I use the IF statement to filter the tables. But it doesn't give me the right answer. As the following script shows, I use AdventureWorks to do the testing. I want to do some work on every table except Person.Address, Person.Contact, Person.CountryRegion. As you can see, these tables still included in the result. Why? Who can help me with my problem? Great thanks.
sp_msforeachtable '
IF ''?'' <> ''Person.Address'' AND ''?'' <> ''Person.Contact'' AND ''?'' <> ''Person.CountryRegion''
BEGIN
PRINT ''?''
END
';
The result is:

Have you tried adding brackets?
sp_msforeachtable '
IF ''?'' <> ''[Person].[Address]'' AND ''?'' <> ''[Person].[Contact]'' AND ''?'' <> ''[Person].[CountryRegion]''
BEGIN
PRINT ''?''
END
';
Why not just use the system tables as it appears that you want all tables not in the Person schema?
select sys.schemas.name + '.' + sys.tables.name from sys.tables
inner join sys.schemas on sys.tables.schema_id = sys.schemas.schema_id
where sys.schemas.name <> 'Person'
