I typically do a backup/restore of the database then port over the data via
the dts export wizard.

Hi All,
I have just setup a new development PC my home network and want to move the databases I have created on another machine to this PC. Both PCs are members of the same work group. There is no domain controller or domain, just a work group. I've set up both SQL server instances to use SQL Sserver and Window security mode.
I created a DTS package to copy the required databases between SQL instances through the Copy Database wizard in Enterprise Manager. All looked good. However, when I ran the package it failed due to an access violation. I've done some reading and suspect that it isn't possible to use this approach within a work group as it is necessary to add the network user to at least one of the SQL instances logins. Can anyone please confirm this?
I know I can use the backup and restore mechanism to move the databases but it would be nice to know whether it is possible to set up a DTS package to do this in my and if so how before I resort to this.
Cheers
Ian
