this time all went much better,

except for

My SQL server 2008 does not like the data type = string

I know its not the same

is it possible that

create table dbo.yaf_Smiley is not included in sql files ?

I get the error

FILE:

mssql/install/constraints.sql

ERROR:

Cannot find the object "dbo.yaf_Smiley" because it does not exist
