2000 to 2005

  • I am developing an intranet site that will use a SQL Server 2000 database.  I wanted to work at home from my laptop, so I backed up the 2000 database from the server with EM and restored it into SQL Server 2005 on my laptop (version 9.00.1399.06).  When I got home with it, I found that the tables were there, but they were empty.  I backed up and restored again, this time with Mgmt Studio, and the data magically appeared.  Then, there were no permissions on the stored procs, so I had to set all of those.  Is there an easier way to do this? 

    There is no "i" in team, but idiot has two.
  • Why not develop @ home on SQL 2000?

  • After you restore you need to remove/resolve orphan users. that might be the reason why you dint get permissions at first.

  • I had a login mapped to the user in the database, so I don't think there were any orphans.  But what about the empty tables?
