I have deleted SQL Server database from the network. Then I created a database with same name. Can I get back the old database ? (will the newly created file replace the old file ? is there any other way to get back the database through hex editor,...etc , ) A reply will be highly appreciated Thanks & Best Regards, mats |

What exactly do you mean by "deleted"?
Did you execute a DROP DATABASE command from Query Analyzer? Did you delete the database using Enterprise Manager? Did you delete the database files?
If you have a database backup, you can RESTORE the database to a new name. Books online has details.
You will probably want to run RESTORE FILELISTONLY first to get the logical names from the backup device/file. Again, see BOL for details.
