Multiple SPs

  • In EM, I could select multiple SPs and script it so that I could run it on a different instance of SQL Server using QA. This was very convenient for me as I could quickly create multiple SPs. In Management Studio, I want to be able to do the same but I can't seem to select multiple SPs.

  • (In Object explorer pane) try right clicking on the DB in question, then from the context menu select Tasks|Generate Scripts.  This then fires a wizard (yeehaw) that will do what you're wanting (ie select sprocs, tables etc etc for scripting).

    Cheers,

    Steve.

  • I tried that. I get "Operation not supported in version 8". This is probably because my DB is still SQL 2000 and not 2005. I guess in case of 2000 I still have to use my good old EM/QA combo.

  • Is there anything special about your stored procs?  I just tried this against a SQL2K (sp3) DB via SSManagement Studio (June CTP) and it worked fine both to query window and text file.

    Steve.

  • There is nothing special. It works when I try to run it or try to create it individually. I don't get an error. It is only when I want to copy multiple SPs over to a new server.

  • yaip, are you on the June CPT or April?

  • april. i didn't even know there was a june ctp.

  • I tried to install June CTP and ran into problems. On the screen where it expects either a default instance or a named instance, I chose default instance and then I got an error.

    I already have the April CTP installed. What am I not having if I don't install the June CTP? If I do have to install the June CTP, do I have to completely uninstall the April CTP before proceeding with the June CTP install? All I would be interested in the client tools. I still will have SQL Server 2000 as my database.

  • I had to all but reformat my drive in order to get the June CTP installed. You will need to, at the least, uninstall the April CTP first.
