Hi everyone,

I have two MSSQL 2000 databases (DEMO and LIVE) sitting on a remote, shared server. I want to migrate the schema and data of DEMO to the LIVE (overwriting LIVE's contents).

But because this is all on shared hosting, I am not able to do a backup and restore (as I do not have access to the backed up files). I was hoping to use Database Publishing Wizard [url]http://www.codeplex.com/sqlhost/Wiki/View.aspx?title=Database%20Publishing%20Wizard[/url] but when I run it on the DEMO server, I hit this error:

- Gathering list of objects to script (Error)
Messages
• This method or property is accessible only while working against SQL Server 2005 or later. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)

I take it to mean that Database Publishing Wizard can only be used on MSSQL 2005.

Is there any other workaround in this case?

Thanks for the help.

I managed to accomplish what I wanted by downloading the latest version of the Database Publishing Wizard 1.1, which is available here: http://www.codeplex.com/sqlhost/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=2859
