Restoring a single table

  • Hello,

    Is it possible to restore any single object from a complete backup. If yes, how can I restore a single table.

    Thank you all.

  • Not without restoring the whole backup, no. What can be done is restore the backup to a temporary location and then move the data for the single table from that temporary database to where you need the data to be.

  • You cannot retrieve a single table from native SQL Server Database backup.

    However, some of the backup-recovery tools provide this functionality.

    SQL-Backtrack for SQL Server -- BMC Software.

    This is a very good tool for retrieving a single object from a database. You can also have object level backups in this tool. You may want to try out the trial version of this tool. http://www.bmc.com

  • This can be done by using command restore database with partial option.

    Also  while creating the table if he has mentioned create table on filegroup (filegroup name)     .

    Hence while restoring with partial option only that particular data file can be restored in which it contains table.   

  • LiteSpeed 2005 for SQL Server supports Object Level Recovery. The GUI is very intuitive and allows you to perform object recovery to a CSV file or to a new table using DTS. LiteSpeed's Object Level Recovery routines support both native and LiteSpeed backups.
