Hi
I have 1 DB on MSSQL 2005 Enterprise and 1 DB on MSSQL 2008 Enterprise .
Both MSSQL servers are located on different hosting companies which only provide me with one DB user account
Could you please tell me how could I copy Structure and All records from MSSQL 2005 to SQL Server 2008.

Backup/Restore would be the easiest way.


No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

Hello webfred,
But I can't restore MSSQL 2005 to MSSQL 2008 DB, Since Backup file is not stored locally.
Could you please tell me how could I do it?

My idea was, if you don't have access to the servers, then you could ask the providers.

Interesting part is that they don't able to restore it . I think their Server can't restore files bigger than 250MB(my DB size).but I could restore the DB in local SQL server.
Is there another way to Restore / Copy DB contents , having only DB Owner privilage.
