No object copy option in SQL 2005 DTS

  • The option to "copy objects and data between SQL Server databases" is now gone in SQL 2005 DTS.  You only have the option to copy tables or write a script.  Also, the checkboxes to include all dependent objects, security options, table options, etc are also gone and the "use quoted identifiers" box is now unchecked by default.  I guess we just have to script objects now instead of using DTS to copy them between servers. 

    Has anyone heard whether these options will be re-added in sp1?

  • This was removed by the editor as SPAM

  • I was starting to wonder if I was the only one who had experienced this problem. Can anyone suggest a panacea?

  • I'm going to install sp2 on a test server this week and start checking it out.  I was originally hoping that this issue would be resolved in one of the SPs but I don't have my hopes up because I haven't seen it listed in any of the service pack documentation.  Will let you all know what I find...
