Disable all constraints in a table?

I have to delete records in quite a few of the tables of a DataWarehouse and
then populate them from else where. I'm not able to delete the records due t
o
Foreign Key constraints and I was wondering if there is a simpler way for me
to disable all the constraints in a table.
Thanks,
rgnI think you can use
alter table mytable nocheck constraint all
but I am not sure if it is a good idea as you will disable enforcing the
integrity of your data.
Hope this helps,
