Problem with Restore of Transaction Log

    Hi,

    I'm writing a c# utility to syncronize 2 SSEE (only one direction is allowed) based on transanction log backup.

    My problem is that I can't restore the backup of transaction log; I've noted that in Management Studio the menu Task->Restore->Trasaction log... is disable, is because the Express Edition dosen't allow to restor such kind of backup? My only option is to backup/restore full database every time?

    Thanks

    The reason that the option to restore a transaction log is grayed out, is that the database is not in condition to accept a transaction log restore.  The database has to be in prior to recovery state before the transaction log can be applied.  That is, following a database load with the norecovery option on, you'll have the option to load a transaction log.

    Regards,

    during last full backup restore...go to genetal tab ....choose the 3rd option ie. leave the database in read only...then click OK....

    after that restore the transaction Log with their sequence.
