title: Are there any programs that will shrink the size of a sql script file?
body: <p>I have a SQL script which is extremely large (about 700 megabytes). I am wondering if there is a good way to reduce the size of the script?</p>
  
  <p>I know there are code minimizers for JavaScript and am looking for one to use with SQL scripts.</p>
  
  <p>I am not looking to get performance on the SQL script. I am trying to make the file size smaller. Removing excess whitespace. Keeping name-qualification down so that the script file sizes can be smaller.</p>
  
  <p>If I attempt to load the file in SQL Server Management Studio I get this error.</p>
