RE: What is defncopy and it's usage.

The defncopy utility cannot copy table definitions or reports created with Report Workbench. Invoke the defncopy program directly from the operating system. defncopy provides a non-interactive way of copying out definitions (create statements) for views rules defaults triggers or procedures from a database to an operating system file.

Alternatively it copies in all the definitions from a specified file. You must have select permission on the sysobjects and syscomments tables to copy out definitions; you do not need
permission on the object itself.

You must have the appropriate create permission for the type of object you are copying in. Objects copied in belong to the copier. A System Administrator copying in definitions on behalf of a user must log in as that user to give the user proper access to the reconstructed database objects.
