    I want to revert back to original state of database before i performed restore database

    Hello,
    i am in great trouble. I want to revert back to original state of
    database before i performed restore database on my sql server 2K
    Database. Accidently i didn't take backup of my Database and i did
    restore, so is there any way to get the original state back of my
    Database?

    Any suggestion will be highly appriciated.


    Regards,
    S. Domadia.

    If I understand you correctly, no.

    You restored a backup over a copy of your database?

    That completely overwrites it.

    Any suggestion will be highly appriciated.

      You can't rollback a restore. Your only hope is that the SQL Server created
      new files during the restore (e.g. backup was from a different server) and
      the original deleted database files still exist on the drive. It's a long
      shot but an undelete utility might allow you go recover those.
