I can see plenty of posts about where the field description extended property lives and how I can get it, but nothing about adding these at the CREATE TABLE stage.

Answer 1

SQL Server provides a system stored procedure that allows you to add descriptions, one name-value pair at a time

Example as follows:

EXEC sys.sp_addextendedproperty 
@name=N'Column 2 Description' -- Give your description a name
   , @value=N'blah blah 2 for a specific column' -- Actual description
   , @level0type=N'SCHEMA'
   , @level0name=N'dbo'
   , @level1type=N'TABLE'
   , @level1name=N'MyTestTable' -- Name of your table
GO

You would have to repeat for each description name-value pair

Hope this helps
