SQL Packager - 5.3
Learning SQL Packager - 5.3
Using SQL Packager
SQL Packager enables you to package the structure and contents of a Microsoft® SQL Server™ database or database upgrade into a .NET executable file or a C# project.
You can use SQL Packager to package the database structure, data, or both, for installation or deployment. SQL Packager also enables you to compress your package for reduced storage overheads, and faster deployment and distribution of databases.
If you package the database as a C# project, you can customize the package. For example, you can edit the forms created in the project to customize the appearance of the graphical user interface that is displayed when you run the package.
You can use SQL Packager to package SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 databases.
For an overview of how you use SQL Packager, see Process overview. The following worked examples are also provided:
