Generating INSERT statements
When you are creating a SQL script to deploy your system, Enterprise Manager does a good job with all of the schema (creating the tables, views, etc...) but doesn't handle creating INSERTS for any of your lookup tables. I used to generate SQL INSERT statements for my data using a SELECT (SELECT 'INSERT ..."' + [Col1] +'"...), but looking around on the web tonight, I found a cool stored proc that does all the work for you.

I actually found quite a few utilities to accomplish this same result, but this was the first one I tried and it worked great!

Should look internally on Toolbox too - there are many great datalayer generators to build standard CRUD.
