Possible Duplicate:
Sql server version problem when database restore

I would like to restore a database, but I get follow error message:

the database backup on a server
running version 10.50.1600 that
version incompatible with this server
which is running version 10.00.4000

What should I do to update my SQL Server 2008 to this version?

I have already installed service packs 1 & 2 for SQL Server. But the restore of the database still doesn’t work.

    • Your backup is from SQL Server 2008 R2 (version 10.5)
    • You are trying to restore onto SQL Server 2008 (version 10.0)

    It can’t be done

    You’ll need to:

    • upgrade target server to SQL Server 2008 R2
    • use SSIS to migrate the schema and data
    • use SSMS wizards to migrate the schema and data
