Copy the Database Structure to a new DB

We're using MS-SQL 2005 on Windows Server 2003. We need to create a new application and dataset from a pre-existing database. How do we copy the pre-existing database to a new database and drop all of the data in the process?

We have tried the copy database command and then deleting the data. When we do this, it starts off fine, but after a few deletes, the database becomes suspect?

Thx for the help.
