I'm a beginner user. I'd like to move the whole database from a work station to a server, how should I do it in a safe way? First of all, I have a very basic question: How could I save a database in SQL Server? Thanks in advance.

backup a database and restore it on the other server.
look up backup and restore in BOL = books online = SQL server help.
