.mdf is too new (661) my database supports version 655

Question

I am using SQL Server 2008 express and i want to import .mdf and i get this error: .mdf version is 661, your db supports the version 655

Which version is 661 and how

Answer 1

Version 661 sounds like the format used by server 2008 R2 so it looks like someone has installed the beta and then attached your DB to it.
