Copying all data from table in one DB to another db

I have to SQL Databases.
The first one is used with MS Access to transfer/convert data from clients
existing database (could be any type) to a database (SQL Database A) in SQL
server. During the process data is modified to meet my applications
requirements
SQL database A - Has no constraints etc just the data fields.
SQL database B - has all the necessary constraints etc.
I have many tables that need to be coppied in a certain order. Is there a
way without DTS to create a script to copy all rows from the tables in SQL
Database A to SQL Database B so i can process the import in table order I
require.
Regards
Jeff

at the sysobjects table with type U. Those objects are user tables.
