| In SQL Server Management Studio, right click on the table, choose script > create > new query window. Now you have the code to create the table. You can run that code in your new database or rename the table to recreate it in the same db. |

Yes. That will only create the table. Use the method as describe by tprupsis. it will generate a table creation script plus any other indexes, pk etc depending on you selection KH[spoiler]Time is always against us[/spoiler] |
