Creating new database from a backup of another Database on the same server?

Question

I am trying to create a new database from an old backup of database on the same server. When using SQL server management studio and trying to restore to the new DB

Answer 1

I think that is easier than this.

• First, create a blank target database.
• Then, in "SQL Server Management Studio" restore wizard, look for the option to overwrite target database. It is in the 'Options' tab and is called 'Overwrite the existing database (WITH REPLACE)'. Check it.
• Remember to select target files in 'Files' page.

You can change 'tabs' at left side of the wizard (General, Files, Options)
