Need to read 85 SQL tables and export them to a delimited flat file with a header. I cannot use bcp or invoke sqlcmd. Has to work with SQL 2005 - 2014. Will execute from a SQL Agent job.
I have seen some partial examples with smo, serverconnection, sqlconnection with adaptor. Any others that I am missing.
What are the pros and cons of the various classes? Which is the most portable? The solution will be sent out to several clients and I have no control over their os, .NET, PS version. (I can force probably force the .NET and PS, but would prefer not to do it too often)
