SQL-Server-2005

Dear Friends,

I have to make a Patch file for the SQL Server Database that i need to send it to client in order to update the Old dB. In the new database I have many changes in the database schema i.e., new tables, updated tables, stored procedures, views (new ones and old ones).

Now in order to make a patch for the same, I need to write the full code for the New stored procedures and updated stored procedures, and for new tables as well. This will make the patch code a bit complex. I was looking for some easy procedure to perform the same operation but ended in getting nothing from web. So at last I switched to http://www.codeproject.com for the answer.

If anyone out there is having any idea regarding this, Kindly advice.

Thanks,

Varun Sareen

I would use SQL Management Studio to generate a SQL script that creates table, views, stored procedures etc, that amend the SQL script accordingly, for example if you are adding a column to a table then you would modify the relivent section from CREATE TABLE to ALTER TABLE .
