    How do I Restore Backup to a d different Database Name?

    Did you even check BOL for this? It's something which I would expect someone with thousands of SSC posts to do routinely before posting.

    Also, you'd better be sure that your database's views/procs etc do not contain fully qualified names, or this is a very bad idea.

    The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

    I have done this before.

    What is the syntax?

    From the link Steve posted above:

    --To Restore an Entire Database from a Full database backup (a Complete Restore):

    cI am just trying to restore PrismDataSave from a PrismData backup

    Everything you need (and more) is up there. Trying figuring out what you think you need and post it here. We'll help you get the correct syntax, but you need to learn how to read Books Online to figure this out as well. You do really want to always rely on people on the internet or do you want to get to the point where you can help others, whether on the internet or in the workplace?

  • Thanks!

    Thanks!

    Sarcasm noted.

    USE [master]

    RESTORE DATABASE [AdventureWorks2014Test] -- Restore to a Different name

    FROM DISK = N'C:\SQLBackups\AW2014.bak' -- Using the backup of the "production" database

    WITH FILE = 1,

    MOVE N'AdventureWorks2014_Data' TO N'C:\SQLData\AdventureWorks2014Test_Data.mdf',

    MOVE N'AdventureWorks2014_Log' TO N'C:\SQLLogs\AdventureWorks2014Test_Log.ldf',

    NOUNLOAD,

    STATS = 5;

    GO

    Here, this is what you need.
