Hi Experts!

I am trying to restore a database backup of SQL 2005 database.

But when ever it is restored, it is in readonly mode. Why is this so?

Below is the command I am executing.

restore database MYDB
From disk ='D:\MYDB.bak'
WITH RECOVERY, REPLACE,
MOVE 'MYDB_Data' TO 'C:\MYDB_Data.mdf',
MOVE 'MYDB_Log' TO 'D:\MYDB_Log.ldf'
GO


Thanks in advance

Regards
Sachin

Most likely it was in read only when you took the backup.

Just change it to read-write.
