Do you want to remove the column from the table. If yes it is not possible with dropping depending object like constrains and indexes in SQL Server.

hi jj
all the tables  with selected columns copied on to a different database with the 'Select * Into...' clause from one server to another. But this statement does not transfer constraints and indexes. How do we transfer the constraints and indexes to the destination server.
Generate Scripts is the answer-

Go to  SSMS -> Choose your database -> tasks-> Generate scripts -> Next
-> Script Check Constraints to true
-> Script Indexes  to true
-> ScriptDependencies to true
-> Select the tables you need
-> next -> next ->
