I'm looking for an easy way to transfer a database schema I have developed inside visual studio as a strongly typed dataset (xsd file) into a corresponding sql server database. Silly me I assumed the process would be forthright, but I can't find out how to do it. I assume I could duplicate the tables column by column, but that seems so error prone. Does anyone know of a way to perform the schema transfer like this? Maybe a tool to translate the xsd file into a corresponding sql server ddl file?
Final thought once I have the schema transferred moving data around between the two data stores will be straight forward, its just getting the schemas synced that has me stumped...
Thanks, Keith

Why didn't you implement your data model directly in SQL Server ?! It is more common and engineered and I think this is why Microsoft has not provided any wizard or tool for this case. As well you can make your data model as scripts or .sql files and they can be managed via SVN and whenever you need the model implementation you can sue them.
