Hello everyone,

I'm in a situation with a 3rd party where they have 3 .dat files (no log files) from a SQL 6.5 database. These files were located on a backup tape from 2001. The client would like to make this database operational again. The master.dat file was not recoverable, nor was the log file. Is there any way to "attach" these files so we can ultimately upgrade to SQL 2000? Any input would be appreciated
