I need to reproduce a bug, and a guy from the other team has sent me a .mdf and .ldf files from his sql server 2005 instance. When I attach the database, all I get is empty tables, even though file is 2 mb large. The db contains 2 tables that have, among other thing, a varbinary(max) field. At the same time another database, which has no varbinaries in tables, is attached ok and data are in place. What could be possible reason why data became inaccessible?

Perhaps he sent you a database with empty tables.
