Would shrinking the DB perform the same task? We ran the script and instead
of shrinking the log file down to 200 meg, it took about 2 gig off the size
of it....so it's down to about 4 gig.....we're trying to restore it onto a
win '95 pc, but it keeps telling us we've only got 2 gig free, and we need a
little over 5 free. It's on a hdd with 8 gig free...where's this 2 gig
coming from? Is there anything i'm missing? It should just be a matter of
restoring the db....could it be that i'm using Win '95 instead of NT?
