• I like the script, it will be useful.

    I have added the following to your code:

    DECLARE

    @sql VARCHAR(2048)

    ,@sort INT

    DECLARE tmp CURSOR FOR

    then your code goes here.

    OPEN tmp

    FETCH NEXT FROM tmp INTO @sql, @sort

    WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0

    BEGIN

    PRINT @sql

    FETCH NEXT FROM tmp INTO @sql, @sort

    END

    CLOSE tmp

    DEALLOCATE tmp

    The result is now text that can be copied into another query window and run or saved to a file.

    Thanks for sharing your code.
