| You can not restore a Backup made with SQL2005 in SQL2000.You will have to create a script from the SQL2005 database, use that to create a database in SQL2000 (having removed any SQL2005-specific features that you may have used), and then transfer the data - e.g. using DTS (you will have to resolve any databases not supported under SQL200, if you have used any)Kristen |

| Backup restore is one way highway... if you want to go back you have to take a side roads like BCP/DTS:)MohammedU |
