I didn't say that there is not anything publicly available for this, but
I was too lazy to start searching for something. As a matter of fact the
code that we use to get the tables with 30% more fragmentation was some-
thing that SQL Server MVP Andrew Kelly posted to
microsoft.public.sqlserver.tools once. (I believe that it was that news-
group, but I could be wrong.)

SQL Server comes with maintenance plans where you can set this up,
and probably get some default. But the problem is, that this is not a
case of one size fits all. There are several factors involved: how
much data is inserted? updated? deleted? What availability requirements
do you have? Do you need to use GUIDs etc.
