Hi Tim,

I have the same issue using a linked server between a SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 boxes, can you tell me if you ever resolved this issue?

Many Thanks

Marcus

Hi Lynn,

I am familiar with the procedure in 2000 and have read on 2005, SQL is running in single user mode unfortunately. Whats more confusing is...

Thanks for your help, its a disk backup I am restoring from. I can confirm the ldf and mdf files are in the original locations as on the other...
