Hi,
After just installing sql 2005 on our test machine, I am trying to restore a database using a backup file on the network. However, the specify backup diagol box allows only for browsing to a file on the local machine - I find no way to type a UNC path to choose the backup file from. I can do this in 2000, is it no longer an option to doit through the GUI or am I missing something?
Thanks

You may use the Query analyser to specify the UNC path. it works well.
I am not sure about the GUI in 2005

In SPECIFY BACKUP window click Add botton at the bottom you see the SELECTED PATH which you can overrite it.
