Attaching to a database .MDF file on a mapped drive

    We need to access about 300 Giga bytes of data from a database on a remote server. We have SQL Server loaded on a workstation and when we attempt to attach to the remote .mdf file using a mapped drive the drive does not appear as an option. What are we doing wrong? Thanks!

    Hi

    The drive must be mapped under the user profile that SQL Server runs on.
