I have a table I'd like to copy so I can edit it and play around with
the data. How do I create copy of a table in SQl Server?
Thanks,

The easiest method to copy a table with data is SELECT ... INTO:
SELECT *
INTO MyNewTable
FROM MyTable
Note that this method does not copy constraints and indexes.

Hope this helps.

Hi
I suggest that you backup the database and restore it as a different
database.
See the following (for move read copy!): http://support.microsoft.com/default...n-us;Q314546#2

Isn't that overkill? You'll not only copy the table, but you'll copy
everything else in that database as well!!!!

Remove the "remove_spa m." from the email address to email me.
"I can give it to you cheap, quick, and good. Now pick two out of
the three"
if you're moving it from one database to another on the same server, i
would use DTS and "copy object." if you're moving it to another
server this method will sometimes fail.
i'm not sure but i think it has something to do with object
permissions granted to logins that exist on the source server but do
not exist on the destination server. if it's all on the same server
it's a non-issue. i'm pretty sure this will also bring over your
indexes, constraints, etc.
When playing mistakes can be made!

Hi,
I'm new in C# programming. I received an order to create application
with ODBC technology. Application seems to be simple, It should copy
table from database, for example SQL server, to another database, for
example MySQL. I found solution with SqlBulkCopy, but I stuck with
ODBC. Do you have any idea how to do that?
Thank you in advance.
