| I have sql server local on my desktop, I want one of the database to be completely updated from the production server.I generally use DTS to do this...i.e. selectiing objects either table or sp's etcIs there a a quicker way of doing this than DTS i.e. copy all objects with data?I want the whole copy of one data base copied from the production to the local database. |

| Have a look at dmo.Also try backup and restore.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

presumably prod does regular backups? just restore from one of them.
