Copy Database to Other New Database
I need to copy my existing database called Tribase to a new one called Tribase2 in SQL 2005 Express. I created a new Database Called Tribase2 and made a backup of Tribase then used the following to restore to Tribase2: restore database Tribase2 from disk = 'C:\Inetpub\ftproot\Backup s\SQLBacku ps\Tribase BU.bak' But get the following error: "The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Tribase2' database." I am not an expert so Im probably missing something. How can I effectively make this work.

WITH MOVE just means you are chaing the location of the files in the database being restored to. You are "moving" the files to a different location than the catalog had them.
