Table Backup with native SQL, Process 2


-- Table Backup with native SQL, Process 2
Version : SQL 2008 or later.

Table Backup.
You can get the result in 4 types...
 Process 1 : Generating scripts
 Process 2 : Import/Export Option (T-SQL/SSIS)
 Process 3 : Inserting into new table (Select * into newtab from baktab)
 Process 4 : Inserting into existing table (Create newtable with same structure as
Original table, Insert into newtable select * from backtab)

Here we can see Process 2 :
You have an option with Import/Export Wizard.
See below how it works..  

Right Click on the database Tasks -> and click Import Data... (OR) Export Data...as below

Now you have to configure the destination file as bleow.. As I have selected my destination is Flat file, I just need to select Row Delimiter and Column delimiter from the drop down.

So, Now you have two options here, Select Run Immediately to have the import/export task done now.
Or you can check the other box as Save SSIS Package and will let you run whenever you want in future.
Please look at below.
