Hello,
thank you. I resolve the issue and get my data back successful. I create
a new database and check the number that new database is created and I
replace only datafiles from old directory to new one. In few years back
I was trying to start similar topic without success, when you have the
data but indexes and/or transaction log is corrupt / broken, how to get
the data back without indexes and transactions log. I export my old
data. Thanks again.
Regards,
HS
