Hi all,

I'm new to the Database.

We are using the free version of MS SQL Server 2005 for in the organization. Now the data growing

and reaches to 2.7GB. So for free version Microsoft provides upto 4Gb. So any other way to extend

the memory free of cost?. And also in the organization they were developed the application to get

the data for reporting. The reporting is to compare the data past few years.

My Plan:
Planned to take the bakup and clear the data and allowing the fresh data
But if i do that i can't compare the data with pervious year in reporting.

Looking for yours kind help.

Thanks,
