Question

I’d like to write a stored procedure in SQL 2005 to script all my database objects to a file. The only problem is…I have no idea how to do it. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Answer 1

you can try something like this,

First of all creating a new store procedure in your SQL server, like this.

CREATE PROCEDURE ListObjectsToFile
AS
BEGIN
 select * from sysobjects;
END
GO

And then call it from the Command Line, indicating your complete connection string and the path/name of the output file

C:\>sqlcmd -S
yourServer\yourSQLServerInstance -U yourUser -P yourUserPassword -q
ListObjectsToFile -o C:\list.txt

Hope that helps,

Santi! 🙂
