I am restoring a MS SQL 2000 Database on a another server in Enterprise Manager i chossed all tasks/restore database in options tab i selected check box force restore over existing database and in recovery completion state option "Leave database nonoperational but able to restore additional transaction logs" when database restore completed it is showing as database name (Loading) and it did not prompt me to restore my xxxx_Log.LDF file . I wanted to restore this database on another server first XXXX.BAK file and then my XXXX_Log.LDF file so that i have full restore (backup and transaction log.)
