SqlDump - Microsoft SQL Server database backup program
Latest stable release is v2.2.1 Current version is v3.0b1

SqlDump is a program to backup a Microsoft SQL Server database as a text file. SqlDump generates SQL statements for tables, indexes, user-defined types, views, procedures, etc and also the table data. This data can be used for a variety of purposes, such as database backups, moving databases to another server, or setting up a test database based on the contents of an existing database.

Output for each dumped table consists of a create table statement that re-creates the table, followed by a set of insert statements that reload the contents of the table.

Major changes from 2.2.1 to 3.0b1

• SqlDump Database Dump Wizard now displays the list of databases for selection.
• SqlDump Database Dump Wizard now has an "About" button for displaying version information.
• FIXED: incorrect dumping of timestamp/uniqueidentifier columns.
• FIXED: object names, column names will not be delimited by brackets if they comply with identifier naming rules (more support for MS SQL 6.5 databases).
• FIXED: table not being dumped if it does not have any indexes.
• FIXED: database size incorrectly calculated.
• FIXED: crash if password input is greater than 64 characters (buffer overflow).
• FIXED: keyboard accelerators, tab key was not working in the progress dialog box.
• FIXED: hitting Ctrl+C in password input in SqlDump command line aborts immediately.
• A log file named "database-name.log" is created in the temp directory (C:\TEMP or wherever defined). SqlDump Database Dump Wizard displays a 'View Log' button for viewing the log file.
• No more Wizard97 style, SqlDump Database Dump Wizard has now a normal wizard look and feel.
• SqlDump (both gui and command line programs) now asks for confirmation before overwriting an existing file (the log file will always be overwritten).
• SqlDump command line now supports GNU style long options.
• Renamed getpass to getpw.
• Moved SQL utility functions like quote(), escape(), etc. to sqlutil.c. The function mtof() is no longer needed, strtod() does a better job actually.
• SqlDump now compiles successfully under MinGW too. That makes SqlDump support three Win32 implementations viz., Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++, and MinGW with W32 headers and libraries.
• All the source files have been fully modified to follow my coding style (based on the classic Bjarne Stroupstrup's coding style).
