selected table backup

  • Dear friends,

    Can we back up selected tables from a database in SQL Server 2005? I have a DB with 7 tables, among them 3 are encrypted. I need to backup only those 3 encrypted tables. Can I do that?

    Regards,

    Vicky

    No, you cannot take backup of selected tables.

    Instead, you can BCP out data of these tables in flat files OR create a blank database, import these tables and then take backup of this newly created database.
