    Hi,

    we are using sql server 2000 service pack 4.

    when I do a select * from the sys.databases table in query analyzer I dont have a recovery_model_desc field.

    I am trying to programmatically get the recovery model for a few databases

    Help appreciated

    Thanks

    SQL 2000 doesn't have sys.databases, it's new in SQL 2005.

    DatabasePropertyEx has it (function), see Books Online for details.
