| Ok so all inserts and updates occurr in the transaction log ... I've heard things like you can rollback to an instance in time ... is it possible to rollback to a certain set? or what? I lost data and need to get it back ... ahhhh ;-) Any help would be appreciated... |

| I'm not sure if I'm getting it right but you can restore a DB from a TL to a certain point using the keyword STOPAT. The only catch is that you must have a usable DB and TL backup (it usually works with the differential backup). Look it up in BOL (RESTORE-described). |

| I was thinking the same thing, but that's not going to give you a rollback to a certain SET of data, but will give you ALL the data as it was at that time. Plus you can't skip over certain transactions with a RESTORE. And if you didn't take a log backup immediately after the transaction completed, then it's not that helpful. |
