Backup a single table with its data from a database in sql server 2008

Question

I want to get a backup of a single table with its data from a database in SQL Server using a script.

How can I do that?

Answer 1

Put the table in its own filegroup. You can then use regular SQL Server built in backup to backup the filegroup in which in effect backs up the table.

To backup a filegroup see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/backup-restore/back-up-files-and-filegroups-sql-server

To create a table on a non-default filegroup (its easy) see: Create a table on a filegroup other than the default
