When I try to do so, it opens a find dialog, which I use to find the movie database. As soon as I select the database, I get an "attach as" down in the bottom of the dialog, but it is "hardwired" for D:\... Which is a CD drive on my laptop. If I attempt to change the D:\ to C:\ the "OK" button grays out and I am no longer allowed to continue. So little time, so much time wasted trying to get Microsoft stuff to work. _______________________________________________ dba-SQLServer mailing list dba-SQLServer at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-sqlserver http://www.databaseadvisors.com
