Defragmentation of table

We are using database having a current size of over 300GB
to store attachment files in an image column of a table.
is the approach of exporting and importing data records
from the table a good way to defragment the table? if so,
is it possible to export the data records as a flat file
to a tape drive.
thanks.There are commands in SQL Server to defrag and reorg. I strongly suggest you
start by reading below
excellent whitepaper:
