    Exporting Table Definitions


    I have an existing 2008 R2 SQL Server database on my client's server and a corresponding test/development database in my home/office server. I need to add about 20 fields to an existing table. I would like to add these fields to my development database and then export/import the new field definitions (not the data) to my client's server. Is there an easy way to do this?

    Thanks, Eddie

    Look at "Saving a Change Script" in BOL and see if does what you want.

    I didn't plan to use a Change Script. I'm using SQL Server Management Studio and just adding the fields using the table form.

    You didn't look at it, did you? It can create the ALTER TABLE script of changes made in the design view, which you could use on the other server.
