we were running the shrinkfile command and it kept throwing up errors with the
file name. I have seen it somewhere that - not _ are not allowed within the
file name. We ran same command on other files without the - and it worked. Not
quite sure how we can run the command on ID rather than filename still quite
new to Sql.
Thanks

What is the problem that you are having? That is, why command are you
executing, what results are you expecting, and what results are you getting? I
donʼt recall having problems with dashes in file names, but I canʼt
specifically remember an instance where I had a dash either. Have you tried
shrinking the file by ID instead of by name?

Hi Guys,
Not quite sure if I would find the answer here, but I will ask anyway.
We have an SQL server 2000, with a DB Fire-fly2000.mdb (350mb), and a
corresponding logfile Fire-fly2000.ldf (69GB). Now the issue is that we want to
shink the .ldf file cos of disk space, but we are having a problem with the
naming convention. SQL does not like - in names. Is there a way we can get
around this?
Thanks
