I was doing a bang up job (Ithought) of removing unused programs when I thought I would remove a file taking up a lot of space. Now I am getting error messages upon start up. I downloaded a SQLEXPR32 but this did not help matters.How do I determine the correct version to download? Itried system restore, but this did not replace sql as I had hoped. Please help! Dell Dimension 8300 Series Microsoft Windows XP Professional |

Was it a .mdf or .ldf file?How many databases do you have? Did the name match any of them or was it master.xxx, model.xxx, msdb.xxx?It's usually a log file for a user database - mydb.ldf but that would just mean that database couldn't start not the server.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

I am sorry that I was not clearer. I deleted the entire sql program in add/remove programs. I get several messages/fatal errors upon startup of my computer and upon starting Outlook. I will write the specific messages down upon rebooting. |

You'll have to re-install sql server. This will create new system databases and you can attach the user databases.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

Thanks for your kindness in replying. As I mentioned in the first post, I installed SQLEXPR32 and this was not the correct version to stop the error messages. I have no idea what I had installed as I bought the pc with programs pre-installed and the only disk I have is for windows and other programs, none named sql. |

You are still not making clear to us what is your situation.1. What is the exact error message ? When did you get this message ? "I get several messages/fatal errors upon startup of my computer and upon starting Outlook" Outlook does not use Microsoft SQL Server.2. What program did you remove / uninstall ? Can we have the name ? Is it Microsoft SQL Server ?3. "I bought the pc with programs pre-installed". I don't think Microsoft SQL Server come pre-installed in any PC or server at allNow I wonder is it related to MS SQL Server at all KH[spoiler]Time is always against us[/spoiler] |

Sorry about the delay in providing the error messages (5):1. Your sql server installation has been tampered with or corrupted (could not open sqlevn70.rll)2. Fatal Error Execution Cannot Continue as the language dependent resource file c:\program files\microsoft sql server\80\tools\binn\resources\1033\sqlsvc.rll could not be loaded3. Digital Line detect. Please make sure fax line is connected4. sqlmanger.exe application error. The application failed to initializr properly (0xc0000142)5. Business Contact Manager for outlook database cannot be loaded. The action cannot be completed because business contact manager masnager cannot access the database. The database is currently stopped. Do you want to change the database configuration? |

Please be aware that all of the people coming to your forum are not developers. There are differing levels of knowledge-some fonts and some drips. If I knew the answer to these questions then I wouldn't be here asking for help. Thank you. |

Did you install sql or install BCM? Some of those error messages don't look like from sql installation. Keep in mind that people here don't know your environment, it's hard to guess what you did and what happened. |

I used the "remove programs" feature to uninstall sql server that is all the detail that I know. I do not remember installing this program initially that is why I thought I had no need for it. |

As I know, BCM installation can put sql express on the machine if you choose create db locally. |

I did install sql express a few weeks ago after removing sql server hoping that it would clear up the error messages. It did not. |

If this is a 7.0 version of SQL Server, it is not even supported any more. I would not be too confident that 7.0 database files could be reattached to one of the newer versions, either. Your best bet may be to download a copy of SQL Server 2005 Express, and try to restore your databases from the backups you (hopefully) made.e4 d5 xd5 Nf6 |
