| I am in a situation where I need to get a copy of test database that is on production server running MSSQL 2000 Standard to my local machine running MSSQL 2000 personel. I tried to use the copy wizard where it appears I get connected to the source server OK but when I try to indicate the destination server which is my local machine I get errors poping up about cannot connect to (local) etc. I am NOT a DBA just a programmer trying to get a local test environment up to be more productive.

| Hi, go to the sql client network utility on sql 2000 standard and add the IP address of the sql 2000 personal. Try connecting first thru query Analyzer if it connects, then go try sql wizard. Easy way is to backup the DB on sql 2000 standard and restore on sql 2000 personal. Let me know what happens RA. |
