Copy complete database

Asked by Annu in MS SQL Server

I have a database in SQL Server 2000. The database consists of about 40 tables, 50 SPs, 30 views...

Some tables have hundreds of thousands of records (one has a couple of million). The complete backup is about 2 GB.

I need to copy the complete database and give it to my developer to work on, but I can only use FTP or email to send it to him. The developer does not need all the records, just a few to test on.

What is the quickest and simplest way to copy the complete database, strip out most of the records and send it to him?
