Short of backing up and restoring the DB to the target server, you need to generate the scripts for your indexes,constraints/triggers/Fkeys and compile them on the target server. If you need *everything* then you can backup the db and restore on the target server, with a different name for the DB if its on the same server.

Hi dinaka,

Thanks for the reply.
I try to export some tables from production to development server.
I acutally cannot simply use backup and restore becasue there are some extra tables or SP I want to keep there.

I can create scripts for index, constraints in each table. but it takes too much time to check and scripts. Is there other way to do it?

cheers
