| I am fairly new to SQL, so please forgive me if my question is a bit elementary. I need to pull two individual tables out of a massive DB into a new DB for testing.Thanks for the help. |

| In SQL terms RESTORE implies restoring from a BACKUP copy of a database.You can't partially restore a database. You would have to restore the full backup/copy and then extract the 2 specific tables into the new DB. The latter can be achieved via an insert into newdatabase.dbo.newtableselect col1,col2,col3,etc from olddatabase.dbo.oldtablestyle query.... |
