>>Hello all,
>>
>>I am pulling my hair out. I have a SQL database on my local machine and a SQL database on my web host. I am trying to move my database with the data contained to the other SQL Server. Both are SQL 2008 10.0.2531. When I right click my database, choose tasks, then pick backup I get a backup file of my database. Then when I restore that data to the other SQL Server there are three missing tables. Every time! What am I doing wrong or what might cause this? I really need those three tables and they contain too much data for me to re-create them. The other table have data and they come over.
>>Thanks

Tim,
I know you solved your problem with no explanation behind why it didn't work, but did you try scripting (with data) 3 missing tables separately? You can try scripting them just in case - perhaps something would be revealed this way.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
