Is there any script or .exe file that we can use for sqlserver for any upgrade of database.
In our company we are querying againt an vendor supported tables into our sqlserver and they upgraded their tables now.
now our table structures are also changed.
so if we want to move our new table structures to production and want to map the existing data to new table structures means , how it can be done?

Bit late for you this time around, but we script all changes we make to the DEV database, so that those scripts can be used (in order) to update QA and PRODUCTION databases.

In Enterprise Manager "Design Table" there is a button to "Save changes script" which will create a suitable script autoMagically!
