Re: How to Restore a single document from Sharepoint 2003



Rob, I'd suggest you query the docs table, the DirName(has the document path) and LeafName(the name of the document) can help get the document. You'll see that DB holds every doc , including ASPX page so make a good search.

That can help you locate the document in your backup database, and then try to insert that manually in the current Sharepoint DB.

Please keep in mind this is clearly unsupported!. So good luck!

Thank you Victor.

Do you happen to know of a SQL script method to simply query against
the DOCS table to retrieve a document?

Hello Rob,

You have a couple of options, one is going to 3rd party tools, and
some

others.

You can check some info here:

I have the Sharepoint 2003 Server backed up at the SQL level and the
file level of the website. I did not use the Sharepoint Backup
Utility.

I just want to restore one file out of the doc table from the SQL
restore that got overwritten by mistake.

Is there a way to do this without re-installing and setting up the
entire Sharepoint Server from this SQL backup?
