How do I restore a database to SQL server
I have received data from a client who is using SQL server and I need to be able to copy to, restore or somehow access this data on my server. I have SQL 7 SP4 and have received the data in 2 forms.
1. I received a backup file that I thought I could restore. When I try to restore this data, I get the following error.
Error 3169: The Back-up database has on-disk structure version 539. The server supports version 515 and cannot restore or upgrade this database. Backup or restore operation terminated abnormally.
2. They sent me the .MDF and .LOG files from SQL server. I have looked and have found no way to get these files to be recognized by my server.
Is there any way that I can get this data into a SQL server database on my server that I can access?
