Copy Tables from One Database Diagrams to Another (Visual Database Tools)

  • Άρθρο

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Analytics Platform System (PDW)

You can copy a table from one database diagram to another in the same database.

Copying a table from one database diagram to another diagram adds a reference to the table in the second diagram. The table is not duplicated in your database. For example, if you copy the authors table from one database diagram to another, each diagram references the same authors table in the database.

To copy a table from another database diagram

  1. Make sure you are connected to the database whose table you want to copy.

  2. Open the source and target database diagrams and within the source diagram, select the table that you want to copy to the target diagram.

  3. Click the Copy button on the toolbar. This action places the selected table definition on the Clipboard.

  4. Switch to the target diagram. This diagram must be in the same database as the source diagram.

  5. Click the Paste button on the toolbar. The Clipboard contents appear at the new location and remain highlighted until you click elsewhere. If relationships exist between the selected tables and other tables in the target diagram, relationship lines are automatically drawn.

When you edit the table in either diagram, your changes are reflected in both diagrams. Similarly, once you save the table in either diagram, the table is no longer considered "modified" in either diagram.
