| Hi,My full backup is 36GB in size. I need to be able to create a "sample" of the full database for development purposes, hopefully much smaller in size and more portable. Is there a way that I can easily run a backup of the entire database, that only contains N rows per table?Thanks in advance for the help! |

| Surely that would never work? Working out which rows to satisfy all the foreign keys would be a nightmare...Sure if there was some way to take the first 50 rows from each table that would be a small db but then your "data" would be a garbage mess probably.Charlie===============================================================Msg 3903, Level 16, State 1, Line 1736The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION |
