• Place the files in the path specified
• DELETE the existing database with the same name (if that option is specified)

High. Running this query incorrectly could delete your existing database (if you restore a backup on top of it). Do not run this except under the direction of a Cyrious Technical Support staff member. Doing otherwise may result in lost or contaminated data. All data modifications done through direct SQL are permanent and non-reversable.

-- Restore a backup from D:\SQL\Backups, 
-- name it StoreDataCopy, 
-- and put the data on D:\SQL\Data\   (note the trailing backslash)
EXEC Restore_Backup 'StoreDataCopy', 'D:\SQL\Backups\StoreData20091207.bak', 'D:\SQL\Data\', 0
