SQL 7.0 Restore with only *.mdf and *.ldf
Hi!
I wonder if its possible to restore a databas if I only have the *.mdf and *.ldf file in Microsoft SQL 7.0. If I'm using the *.bck file I will lose a month of work...
Thanks!

Create the database you want. Ex: MyDb
then stop your SQLSERVER
move the mydb.mdf and mydb.ldf in your data directory to a temp directory.
Take your "original" mydb.mdf and mydb.ldf and copy them in your data directory
Restart your SQLSERVER
I know it might not be the better solution, but it saved me once...
