I ran it just there and it worked fine here I changed the database to a copy I have here and it worked fine.

[dbo].[Customers] 29
[dbo].[Employee Privileges] 1
[dbo].[Employees] 9
[dbo].[Inventory Transaction Types] 4
[dbo].[Inventory Transactions] 102

use NWind
go
 create table #rowcount (tablename varchar(128), rowcnt int)
exec sp_MSforeachtable
  'insert into #rowcount select ''?'', count(*) from ?'
 select top 5 * from #rowcount
    order by tablename
 drop table #rowcount

I've tried several examples now -- they run, but they don't actually return
anything -- this one creates the table, but doesn't fill it.
