Restoring database from MS SQL 2000 to SQL Express 2005 RRS feed

  • Question

  •  

    Hello,

    I tried to restore a database which I backuped from MS SQL 2000 to SQL Express 2005 but it always failed with the following error message. What could be the problem?

    Restore failed for Server 'SERV\SQLEXPRESS'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)

    Additional information

    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'gtp' database.

    (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)

    Thanks
