Tried to copy a recently created database file from one computer to another. I verified all database files using SQL edit on the second computer, opened Odyssey, changed the database but got an error saying it can't open the LOG file. Anyone know what that means? I've moved database files before but have never seen this problem.

Thanks in advance

Greg,

If the database engine was running when you copied the database, it won't open. You have to roll back the log file. I have a script here somewhere to do that. It's a common error when engine is running.

Dave,

Thanks for that info. I never realized that would happen.

In fact I can't even open the database on the first computer now. If you have the script I would appreciate you sending to me or posting on this board. My email is gregsr@gsfservices.us

Thanks in advance.
Greg

Greg,

I sent you an e-mail
