Deploy Visual Studio 2010 Database Project

Viewed 10746

I have a Visual Studio 2010 Database project, from which I want to generate a script that simply puts up this database to another machine. The problem is that i can't find a solution for this.

As I started the project, I imported the shema from a database on my development pc. The Schema Objects were generated and all tables and scripts where under 'Schema Objects -> Schemas -> dbo'. Over the time, some things changed, some where added. And by using right-click -> deploy, the changes were made to my local database successfully.

But now I want to deploy to another machine. The problem is, that in the release folder of the project, there is only a xml dbschema file containing all tables and scripts that i can't import with sql management studio (or i just can't find out how) and the a deployment script which is nothing more than some checks followed by the pre- and post- deployment script, but without any tables or scripts in it.

So please, how do i export the database from Visual Studio, so i can easily put it up on another machine?
