SQL Server 2005 Selective Backup?

  • I need to do a backup of a database in SQL server 2005. The database is around 70Gig, I need to only backup some of the tables in the database so that I can restore this backup into a testing database. Is there a way to do this. Currently the only option I have is to do a import data into the test database and choose the tables I want to import.
