Are you restoring a full backup or transaction logs?

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

You can't restore a full database backup to a point in time. You can only do it if you have transaction log backups.

Look in Books Online under RESTORE, and also check the entries under STOPAT, they describe the process necessary to allow point-in-time restorations.
