SQL Server is quite complicated program, which sometimes causes some problems for me. I suppose in this situation would be helpful the next program from a soft blog - repair mdf.

Sounds like a security issue with SQL server.

Check your SQL database connections. You will probably have to recreate them so that PC can have access to them.

How do I recover data from .mdf file

Detach you database. Overwrite the mdf and ldf files you've restored from your backup with your files from the D: drive. Reattach the database.
There is no guarantee that this will work or if it works, that your database is in a state where you can continue to work with.
If that doesn't work then there is an option to try to restore database using SQL Server Recovery Toolbox. It is a powerful tool for data recovery. They have a demo version. So you can check it works in your situation or not.

TRIGGER IN SQL

A trigger is a special kind of stored procedure that automatically executes when an event occurs in the database server. A trigger is really an event handler. SQL Server allows users to create triggers (event handlers) for 3 types of events:
  • DML Event - Occurs when a DML (Data Manipulation Language) statement: INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE, is executed.
  • DDL Event - Occurs when a DDL (Data Definition Language) statement: CREATE, ALTER, or DROP, is executed.
  • Logon Event - Occurs when a user logins to the Server.
There are 3 different types of triggers (event handlers) based on the types of events they are triggered by:
  • DML Trigger - Executes in response to a DML event.
  • DDL Trigger - Executes in response to a DDL event.
  • Logon Trigger - Executes in response to a logon event.

SQL Server 2000

An easy way to transfer objects (tables, user defined functions, stored procedures, etc.) is to use Enterprise Manager's "Generate SQL" feature. Use this process at your own risk. Doing it wrong could mess up your existing database.

1. In Enterprise Manager, right-click on the old database and choose "All Tasks" then "Generate SQL Script".
2. In the dialog that comes up, click "Show All" then select the checkboxes for "all stored procedures" and "all user defined functions". (You might also want to check some other boxes, depending on your exact situation.)
3. Click the "generate" button and save the script that it creates.
4. Run the script in the NEW database.

If you run the script in your OLD database, it may destroy your objects, and that would be very bad. Make sure you run the script in your NEW database. (While we're on this subject, it's a good time to mention that you should back up your database before you start this process, and you should make changes to a test system before migrating it to production.)

That should move your stored procedures and user defined functions over.

You can use a similar process to move tables, views, users, and other objects over as well.
