| If you have integrated security and log in with a user that is a administrator on that machine you will have sysadmin rights.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

| The administrator will not have sysadmin rights becuase he/she deleted the builtin\administrators group.Surendra, did you specify mixed authentication when you installed SQL Server? If so, then you can still use the sa account if you remember the password. If not, then the only other way would be to use an account that you created and added to the sysadmin fixed server role, but that would have been a manual step. If neither of these are true, then you are stuck with reinstalling SQL Server.Tara |
