  I wrote some scripts for correcting my old sql 2000 db schema compared to new sql 2000 db. This is done through a loop operations. First check if any table not found in my old db, then running a table creation script for creating that table. If any system stored procedures or scripts availble for table creation ?. I want table scripts like when we take 'generate sql script' process.

  You can get the base data needed to create your table from "sp_help table_name".

  Data can be loaded into a cursor then a script can be built on-the-fly by adding the needed DDL syntax the same way you do dynamic sql.
