I m currently using SQL Server Management Studio.
I have a development database, and access to a live database.
I just want to able to migrate my development tables to the live server.
I m consulting stack flow first, since I don t want to blow anything up.
If you know what tables you want to migrate and they don t yet exist on the prod server, it s as simple as scripting the table definition, then running the script on the server. If it s more complex than that, I would recommend any number of tools which compare database schemas and automatically generate scripts you can run on the destination server to add/alter/remove what you need. A good freeware one for simple jobs is DBComparer. It s pretty basic. An excellent commercial one are the Sql Tools by Red Gate
