Sorry for the off topic post but I know someone talked about this sometime back. Our DBA left and I'm running out of space on SQL. It appears all the space is being sued by a LDF file which I think is the transaction file. How do I get this down in size? I have spare space available on a different drive. Do I need to run something in the database maintenance plan? I'm not a SQL person so any help would be most appreciated. Matthew Shrewsbury, MCSE+Internet MCSE 2000 CCA Server+ Network Manager
