You can get the table details [related tables, foreign key, primary key... etc..] from XSD [XML Schema Definitions] file. Then create the tables as per the relationship. Am i right.... :)

You can simply generate scripts for all that. Have a look at the link for more info:

Good luck!

I am asking about how to create it programically

But you would use those instructions to execute the backup operation. I think you just need to create a visual tool that can be used for entering the parameters that go with it. This backup functionality is built into sql server and would be best to use it.
