    I have a particular table that has several indexes.

    How can I write (a) T-sql statement(s) that will show me

    1. The different indexes produced against the table.

    2. The columns associated with each index.

    Your help is appreciated.

    Keep in mind that these system procs do not return information about included columns, which you may or may not need to know about.

    Write a query that retrieves from sys.indexes, sys.index_columns and sys.columns. Will show key and include columns.
