| Was the MSSQLSERVER service stopped when the MDF file was checked into VSS? If not, then the MDF file is probably bad.I don't recognize the error, but which command are you running to use the MDF file? Hopefully, you are using sp_attach_single_file_db. If not, then try that one in case the MDF file is useable.Tara |
