Carl writes "I have a SQL 2000 database that appears to have reverted to a primitive state. All of my tables are empty, and several of them have reverted to previous incarnations of my schema. Quite a lot of recent work is MIA

I looked at the .mdf file with an editor, and I can see the data recently entered is there in the file - SQL just isn't showing it! I can't be the first person this has happened to...

I have the .mdf and .ldf - the file was in simple recovery mode. How can I convince SQL to show me all of my data?"

Could it be your query? Try do detach your database and to attach it after. Never seen that before! have you tried to restore you db from your backup?

You could also try re-installing the enterprise manager if you haven't already ?

None of that is it. I tried doing a restore log last night, and the system told me the log file terminates with an LNS that is too early for the database.

It said to go find a log file with the later LNS in it, but I know for a fact that I do not have such a file.
