How do you find out the recovery model for all the databases on your SQL Server box?
On a SQL Server 2005/2008 box you can use the sys.databases view, the sys.databases view returns a column named recovery_model_desc.
On a SQL server 2000 box you will have to use the DATABASEPROPERTYEX function. The 2000 version will also work on 2000 and 2008 (I tested this with the July CTP)
--2005/2008 version
SELECT [name],
recovery_model_desc
FROM sys.databases
--2000/2005/2008 version
SELECT [name],
DATABASEPROPERTYEX([name],'Recovery') AS recovery_model_desc
FROM master..sysdatabases
