| Easiest way is to backup the database (for safety).Detach the database.Delete the ldf file.Attach the database - it will create a new ldf.You should also look at the system to find out why the ldf gets that big and redesign so that it doesn't happen again.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy.Edited by - nr on 03/16/2002 10:09:50 |
