Hi,
I have downloaded a source code to a book that I am studying. The downloaded source has a .BAK file (backup of a database). But when I go to the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio and go to Restore command I need to specify to which database I want to restore. And, of course, I don't have an earlier (or any) verison of this database. Therefore, how do I restore a database from .BAK file without having a database?
TIA,
