| Andre Scales writes "Huston we have a problem. A delete query was applied to data on our live sql 2000 box. We had 3rd party backup software running up until a month or ago. Though a change in NA has found this no applied. Hence we have no backups. Just a trans log that’s the same as our .mdf (approx 1gb). Our options I see are to try and get a backup, and then do a rollback. Is this at all possible to cut back such a transaction log either to a backup device/file with checkpoints of transaction id's. Any help would be very much appreciated.Andy" |

| If you can afford it, this would be the right time to buy Log Explorer from Lumigent at [url]http://www.lumigent.com[/url] |

| First, backup your transaction log. Then figure out what time the delete query ran. Now create another database on your server. Next, restore the last backup on the database that was just created and then restore the transaction log up to the point of the delete query. Now figure out which data (the deleted data) needs to be copied from the new database to your production database. Next, copy the data over to the production database.Hope this helps! |
