| Hi,I am trying to restore a sql 2012 backup from another instance. When I select to restore from a backup device and then point to the file, the database drop-down is blank so I cannot select the database to restore. This database is from a sql 2012 32-bit install and I am trying to restore to a 64-bit instance.I have also tried creating the backup device before but with the same result.Help ! |
