I have SQL server 2005 express installed and SQL Server Management Studio express installed. I have a client's database loaded up into SQL.
They have a bunch of tables and I can go into each one and export out to excel, but this will take forever. Is there a way I can hilight ALL the tables in SQL and export them all at once to excel?
In a perfect world, it would be one table per excel worksheet. Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

    Sure. You can use the "SQL Server Integration Services" (SSIS) for that. In the easiest case you could use the light-version of SSIS in Management Studio:
    Right-Click on the relevant Database; then "Tasks - Export Data"
    A wizard will guide you through the export process; select the SQL Server as Source and MS Excel as Target!
