I have created a website that uses a sql server database.
I am new to this and am having trouble transferring the database my host’s server.
I have used a sql script to create the tables and views on the host’s server using Enterprise Manager by:
Right clicking the database – all tasks – create sql script.

My problem is this, I have created the tables but can’t work out how to transfer the contents of the tables to the host’s server.
Is it possible to create a sql script to do this?
What is the preferred method of transferring all the table records to the destination server?

Thanks I will give it a try.

The import database page on my host asks for a sql format.
Can this change my database contents to a sql script?
