Backup everything except data

We have a SQL2000 database that is created via a dump from a third party
product. Being as this dump runs every day, we don't need to back up the
data. However we need the schema, views, triggers, etc. Everything except
the actual data in the tables. Is there a way to make a backup of this?
Thanks!
BrianYes, use some tool that generates DDL script for the database:
