Export SQL Server to a comma delimited file

Hi,

I'm trying to deploy my Web site to GoDaddy. They told me I have to export the SQL Server Express database to a comma delimited file and then upload that file. The export procedure is simple in Access but I don't see any way to do it in SQL Server or from Visual Web Developer or Visual Studio.

Also, I can ask them, but I assume I have to export each table separately and also export the ASPNETDB as well.

Thanks for the help

Open SQL Management Studio express edition [if not installed then down load and install the same ] , use import export wizard to export to a flat file

Thanks Rmaiya,

I downloaded the SQL Management Studio. I think I now need to learn how to use it. I can't seem to open my database. When I go to Open I get "there is no editor available for D:\myfolder\app_data\mydatabase.mdf. Make sure the application for the file type (.mdf) is installed." Also, where do you find the import export wizzard?

I'll try reading the Help instructions tomorrow.
