Hi,<br />
<br />
Just to clarify: My answer was based on you running scripts for everything; Co's answer was based on using a GUI. I believe that both of us are right.<br />
<br />
What are you using to connect to/administer SQL 2008 Express? SQL Server Management Studio Express? or something else?<br />
<br />
Cheers<br />

Just tried to add my two cents :)<br />

Hello, I want to restore an old backup from express 2008 to express 2008. Made a new database, now I get the message:<br />
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlE<wbr />rror: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'vDis' database. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)<br />
I can't remember the structut of the tables and data. Is there any way to find out how to design the new database to accept the old one?<br />
Thanks
