Convert SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server 2005

Question

将SQL Server 2008数据库转换为SQL Server2005。请问有什么解决方案？

Answer 1

You can script your 2008 database to create the database objects and insert data, then run that script on the 2005 instance. You might have to temporarily disable foreign keys to get some of the inserts to work.

Answer 2

If you want to set the compatibility level of your 2008 SQL Servers to be 2005 (so that you are effectively saying that they are all 2005), you can use the SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL command to do this... MSDN link

Using there example, you would run this on your 2008 databases:

ALTER DATABASE database_name -- change me!
SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 90 -- set to sql server 2005 compatibility level
