When I try to add a data-base in SQL Server 2008 (Right clicking on Databases folder->New Database) the only compatibility options given to me in the options tab are 70, 80, and 90.
However, I require the use of the DATE object, which doesn’t work unless I set the compatibility level to 100.
I’ve tried using
exec sp_dbcmptlevel mydb, 100;
GO
However, I get the following error:
Valid values of the database compatibility level are 60, 65, 70, 80, or 90.
What I am missing here?
From your description, it certainly appears that the database is a SQL Server 2005 database, not SQL Server 2008. Does it have a “100.something” next to the server name? If not, it’s not SQL Server 2008.
Are you using SQL Server 2008 Management Studio, or an earlier version?
