Exporting SQL Server database structure into SQL script files

Scripting your SQL Server database schema is one such task that can benefit significantly from automation. Using C# and SQL Server Management Objects (SMO), you can easily generate scripts for your database schema and data.

File Operations in C++

	- Keep exploring until a solution emerges naturally from the evidence
	- If uncertain, continue reasoning indefinitely
	- Question every assumption and inference

	// Full-date notation as defined by RFC 3339, section 5.6, for example, 2024-03-28
	string date1 = string.Format("{0:yyyy}-{0:MM}-{0:dd}", DateTime.Now);
	Console.WriteLine(date1);
