- =======================================
- What is the Database Publishing Wizard?
- =======================================
-
- The Database Publishing Wizard enables the deployment of SQL Server databases
- (both schema and data) into a shared hosting environment. The tool supports
- both SQL Server 2005 and 2000 and does not require that source and target
- servers are the same version.
-
- The tool provides two modes of deployment:
-
- 1) It generates a single SQL script file which can be used to recreate
- a database when the only connectivity to a server is through a
- web-based control panel with a script execution window.
-
- 2) It connects to a web service provided by your hoster and directly
- creates objects on a specified hosted database
-
- The tool may also be used by hosters to script out databases for backup or
- transfer purposes.
-
- =====
- Usage
- =====
-
- The Database Publishing Wizard provide both a graphical and a command-line
- interface. To use the graphical interface, simply execute "sqlpubwiz.exe"
- without any arguments.
-
- To retrieve details on the arguments supported by the command-line
- interface, execute the following command:
-

-
- The tool also integrates directly into Visual Web Developer 2008 Express
- Edition and all non-Express SKUs of Visual Studio. Right click on any
- SQL Server database connecton and select "Publish to provider..." to launch
- the wizard.
