Hi,



After just installing sql 2005 on our test machine, I am trying to
restore a database using a backup file on the network. However, the
specify backup diagol box allows only for browsing to a file on the
local machine - I find no way to type a UNC path to choose the backup
file from. I can do this in 2000, is it no longer an option to doit
through the GUI or am I missing something?



Thanks

KR

By default, you cannot create a database file on a mapped or UNC network
location under SQL Server 2000/2005. You can get around this by turning
on trace flag 1807.
