Hi guys, ok first off my SQL knowledge is somewhat limited so please be patient.
We purchased a practice last month and I am kind of flying blind. Not much information was handed off to the IT team.
I have a few DB's I am trying to back up to send to our software developer and I know what instance I need to login to from looking at SQL configuration manager. But it won't let me login. The instance is on 2008 R2 but I only had 2005 studio manager. So I thought it was a version issue, so I downloaded and installed 2012 studio manager (could not find 2008 r2). Once I tried logging in with 2012 I would get a login error. (May be the username and password idk, as I said what we were given was very limited.)
Anyways, I know where these DB's live on the hard drive, they are under a few folders located under C drive. Is there a way to maybe...
