Generates a Transact-SQL script that can be used to re-create the audit specification.

Namespace:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo
Assembly:  Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function Script As StringCollection
'Usage
Dim instance As AuditSpecification
Dim returnValue As StringCollection

returnValue = instance.Script()

public StringCollection Script()

public:
virtual StringCollection^ Script() sealed

abstract Script : unit -> StringCollection 
override Script : unit -> StringCollection 

public final function Script() : StringCollection

Return Value

Type: System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection
A StringCollection system object value that contains a list of Transact-SQL statements in the script.

Implements

IScriptable.Script()

Remarks

The Script method generates a set of Transact-SQL statements that are used to create the database. This method generates a script that can be used to create the database only. The whole database, including dependent objects such as tables, can be scripted by using the Scripter object.

The generated script might contain undocumented, internal procedures, which are required for the complete script output.

Examples

'Connect to the local, default instance of SQL Server.
Dim srv As Server
srv = New Server
'Reference the AdventureWorks2008R2 database.
Dim db As Database
db = srv.Databases("AdventureWorks2008R2")
'Define a Scripter object and set the required scripting options.
Dim scrp As Scripter
scrp = New Scripter(srv)
scrp.Options.ScriptDrops = False
scrp.Options.WithDependencies = True
'Iterate through the tables in database and script each one. Display the script.
'Note that the StringCollection type needs the System.Collections.Specialized namespace to be included.
Dim tb As Table
Dim smoObjects(1) As Urn
For Each tb In db.Tables
    smoObjects = New Urn(0) {}
    smoObjects(0) = tb.Urn
    If tb.IsSystemObject = False Then
        Dim sc As StringCollection
        sc = scrp.Script(smoObjects)
        Dim st As String
        For Each st In sc
            Console.WriteLine(st)
        Next
    End If
