Hello,

I'm trying for hours to import a database MSSQL.
After few hours I got an answer to use MyLittleAdmin but my custom button was pointing to a wrong server.

Now I can log in Mylittleadmin but stil can't restore a database from my disk.

I always got an error message :
The media family on device ... is incorrectly formed. SQL Server cannot process this media family. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

What do I have to do now ?

Thank you very much for help.

That error sometimes happens when you try to restore a database backup that is from a newer or later version than SQL Server 2005 version 9.0. If that's the case you'll have to convert your current database backup version to version 2005 of SQL Server and then restore it.
