sql server msde: Hi Folks

I am a newbie trying to attach an MSDE dbf from a whatever.mdf and
whatever.ldf files. I keep getting an error that I can't attach the database
to the same name as an existing database.

Any help would be appreciated?

Danny

Hello,

Looks like the database name you specify in the atatch database is already
in the same server instance. Execute SP_HELPDB and make sure that
the database you specy is already not there.

Thanks
Hari
