Hello,
I'm trying to automate a prod to test restore to run weekly on a SQL 2000
sp3a server. Its on the same machine so I can't use the copy db wizard.
Should i use DTS, replication or what. I don't want to deal with orphaned
users and the like. It should be as seamless as possible.

TIA,
jj

Have you looked at BACKUP\RESTORE commands?
