| Hi,Sql always makes you backup the tail of the database that you are restoring. Are we able to override this? What if we don't want to back it up?Please assist.Thanks |

| Hi,I have 2 databases. 1 is the test database, and the other is production. The backup is done for the Production database, and after the backup has completed, I would like to restore it to the Test database. Since it is a database used just for testing, I don't want to back it up.Thanks |
