    Hello people!

    I have a problem again with my SQL Server..

    Please help me, i am a big noobie..

    I get this when i try to open a file that includes a connection to a MS SQL Server database;

    Attempt to locate entry in Sysdatabases for database 'Test' by name failed - no entry found under that name. Make sure that name is entered properly.

    Kindest Regards,

    Hi,

    I find i get that error when i try to restore a database and network connectivity or power is cut to the server.(unfortunate but true, where i work).

    I have found restarting the server it self (restarting ther SQL server services) helps to remove it and then i can restore it or remove it..I think there is a stored proc you can use to programmatically remove it/add it..Perhaps some one else here knows it..i will have a look for it soon..

    Good luck !

    did you drop and restore the db 'test' ?

    If yes, check the user's default db.

    The sysdatabases table in the master database contains one row for each database you create. Use sp_helpdb to report information about databases. The syntax for this command is:

     “sp_helpdb” if you want information about all databases, and if you want information for a specific database

    “sp_helpdb  @dbname” Where @dbname is the database name for which you want to get information. You must have permissions to access @dbname in order to execute sp_helpdb and also the guest user account must exist in the database.

    Regards
