SQL Server Management Studio provides two mechanisms for generating Transact-SQL scripts. You can create scripts for multiple objects by using the Generate and Publish Scripts Wizard. You can also generate a script for individual objects or multiple objects by using the Script as menu in Object Explorer.

For a detailed Tutorial on scripting various objects using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), see Tutorial: Scripting in SSMS.

Before You Begin

Choose the mechanism that best meets your requirements.

Generate and Publish Scripts Wizard

Use the Generate and Publish Scripts Wizard to create a Transact-SQL script for many objects. The wizard generates a script of all the objects in a database, or a subset of the objects that you select. The wizard has many options for your scripts, such as whether to include permissions, collation, constraints, and so on. For instructions on using the wizard, see Generate and Publish Scripts Wizard.

Object Explorer Script As Menu

You can use the Object Explorer Script as menu to script a single object, script multiple objects, or script multiple statements for a single object. You can choose one of several types of scripts; for example to create, alter, or drop the object. You can save the script in a Query Editor window, to a file, or to the Clipboard. The script is created in Unicode format.
