Following quick tutorial demonstrates how to create T-SQL script to copy complete database schema and all of its objects such as Stored Procedure, Functions, Triggers, Tables, Views, Constraints etc. You can review your schema, backup for reference or use it to compare with previous backup.
Step 1 : Start
Step 2 : Welcome Screen
Step 3 : Select One or Multiple Database
If Script all objects in the selected database checkbox is not selected it will give options to selected individual objects on respective screen. (e.g. Stored Procedure, Triggers and all other object will have their own screen where they can be selected)
Step 4 : Select database options
Step 5 : Select output option
Step 6 : Review Summary
Step 7 : Observe script generation process
Step 8 : Database object script generation completed in new query window

Hi,
What if I wanted to script all the views of a database, taking into account dependencies (I have some views that are based on other views). SQL Server 2000 did this, but alas 2005 doesn’t seem to.
Thanks. Any ideas welcome.

Hi,
how to get script tables with records
Hi. Following up my post from Feb 26…
When I used the Wizard of SSMS to script all my views, the views did not come out in the order expected, i.e. the views that were referenced by other views were not created first in the script.
I have today discovered the joys of sp_refreshview. After running sp_refreshview on all my views, my view script generated from the SSMS Wizard now has the views in the correct order.
I obtained this genius script to run sp_refreshview on all my views from here…
Cheers.

How to create a dymnamic script to select field for a report from a list.
1. We generate view by running scripts from application. This creates the main view for the report. The problem is that the fields for this view can change when customer adds fields to report from application.
2. So we need to create a stored procedure that will dynamic select the fields from the view (rather than creating a series of pivot tables that will have to be changed each time the customer added another field to their report).
3. The database does have a table that stores all the table names and fields but how would I need to code the stored procedure to pick fields that meet certain criteria. For instance, if the field has PL in it than this field goes into the planning bucket. But this same field will also have CY or CY1 for different cycle years.
