I can connect to remote SQL Server database and I want to create a local database copy on my system. How can I do it? When i try backup through Management studio I cannot copy backup file on my hard drive only on remote system hard drive. Copy database command also doesn’t work because I have express version of SQL Server. And export command doesn’t transfer stored procedures, only tables data. Any suggestion?

Does T-SQL BACKUP command can help me? if it does then how to use that command?

I havn’t access to remote computer. Only mssql connection.

    If your local drive is accessible by the remote server, you can create your backup directly to your drive. Not to be able to create backups on a network share is just a restriction of the GUI. Use the T-SQL BACKUP command and it will work.
