Thanks a million to you guys for all of your help.

I was able to get them to open, after many hours of trying...

That post by Jasper Smith says to make sure you have a copy of PowerDVD301_2_Data.MDF.

Can anyone tell me where I can get that?

Thanks,

The files were not opened.

I stopped the MSDE and also the SQL service, and copied the files to a mapped drive.

But I was told that they should have been detached...
