| When I attempt to script out a database object from any database server with Enterprise Manager, I get a message like this:[SQL-DMO]CreateFile error on 'CORPSQL03.pubs.DP1'If I change the scripting option from Unicode to ANSI, I get this:[SQL-DMO]CreateFile error on 'CORPSQL03.pubs.DP2'If I attempt to script the objects to a file, it creates the file, but it is empty.I can script out these objects from any other computer, but it doesn't work on my computer. I am in the sysadmin role on all of these computers. The error happens whether I connect to the server with the SA password, or when I connect with my own account with integrated security.I can script out jobs and operators from these servers, but I cannot script out stored procedures, tables, functions, or views.I did a Google search and found a few postings about the same problem, but no one had a solution. Has anyone ever seem this problem, or know a solution?CODO ERGO SUM |

| I would try reinstalling the SQL client tools as it sounds like something is messed up with tools. Then install sp3a on the client machine as the service packs aren't only for the database servers.Tara |

| We got a similar error - [SQL-DMO]CreateFile error on 'Genoa3.database_name.TAB'We have NEVER seen this error before.We tried rerunning the job again and it worked fine the second time. Truly bizarre. This job processed about 30,000 records (very few). |
