I am getting the message "The media set for database xxx has 3 family members but only 1 are provided. All members must be provided. Restore database is terminating abnormally.having look at Microsofts suppot pages I can't see why this error would occur, or what would cause it. The only thing I can think of is that after the original backup was taken the .bak file was zipped with Winzip9 to save space. It was unzipped using Winzip9 before I tried the restore. Any ideas gratefully received RegardsNeil" |
