sql server (microsoft) : Newby Question:MSDE program and data file versions...

Is it possible to have the MSDE 2000 (v8.0) database access (that means =
successfully connect to) database files from MSDE 1.0 (v7.0)? (i.e. =
backups are in v7.0 format and the new database serve is v8.0)

If so, how?

If the database names are all the same try this:

1) Detach the database using the stored procedure 'sp_detach_db'.

2) Re-attach the same database using the 'sp_attach_db' procedure. I
think this one requires the location of two files. The main database
(MDF) and the log file (LDF). Re-attaching the database will cause
MSDE to upgrade the database files.
