Say I have written a Create Table script in a query window and run it. So the table got created. Now, where is this script file being generated (system table). I mean if I do a
select * from sys.syscomments
I will get the script for stored procedure or function in the “Text” column. Likewise any way of getting the same for table or view?
Any DMV etc…
Thanks in advance
I’m not sure where the script is stored, but if you’re looking to be able to view the scripted language to create the table, in SQL2008 R2 (and I’m pretty sure SQL2008) SSMS can generate the script on the fly. Just select your Table (or View, SP, etc…) and right click. From the context menu, choose Script Table as Create To (or whatever other modification you choose from the list). Then you have a choice of output locations-the New Query Editor Window is probably easiest to see your results. From there you have the base language for that table’s creation and you can modify or save it from there.
