The backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611

I have been trying to restore a database today from a backup file I was sent but i kept getting an error (id: 3169):

The backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611

This error indicates that the the file was built for SQL 2000 not SQL 2005. Database files are not backward compatible.

Therefore I had to drop back into enterprise manager, update the file and continue.

Ron Stewart's Gravatar I've actually had more problems going the other way: restoring a database backup created on 2005 to a server running 2000. If you found a way to do that, I'd love to know how to do it...
