How do I stop a database from loading? This is on my standby server. It may not be loading but but just stuck in that state. I think what happened is the backup ran too long and ran into the restore window for the standby server. Thanks. - ray

Bounce sql server?
Restart the server?

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

I stopped & started SQL Service. I restarted the server. Neither worked. Any more ideas? Database still reads "MyDB (Loading)".

This is working now. The database disappeared which isn't a problem b/c I was going to restore it to the last good copy anyway. I'm not sure what exactly worked. I was refreshing, trying to detach, try to delete. After some error messages and refresh the database was gone and I started the restore. Maybe there was a transaction that was rolling back. I'm not sure. - ray
