Error during restore operation

Hi all,
I installed SQL server 2000 on my machine first.
Then i just installed SQL server 2005 tools on above it to get
management studio access.
Now i am trying to restore a database on my machine from backup which
i took from server running SQL server 2005.
i am getting the error-
Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are
allowed. RESTORE HEADER ONLY is terminating abnormally.(Microsoft SQL
Server, Error:3205)
Does anybody know how do i go about to resolve it.
Thanks a lot.
I did some Google which suggests you get this error if you try to restore a 2005 backup to 2000.

|||I reproduced the error, that's exactly an error message you get when you try
to restore a backup that is taken from a SQL Server 2005 instance.

Error creating new SSIS project

In my local client installation of the BI tools, I get the following error when simply creating an SSIS project and the default empty Package tries to display on the screen.

Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

I can use the Reporting Services designer with no problems, and I can use SSIS from the client tools on the server. It is just on my local PC that I get this error. I have completely uninstalled all the tools and reinstalled with no luck.

PLEASE HELP!

If anyone can help, please reply. I am unable to use SSIS AT ALL right now because a new package will only display this error message. And this is the purchased version, not the evaluation copy.

Here is the full message

Microsoft Visual Studio is unable to load this document:
Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

|||

I know it looks like I'm being a pest by bumping my post again, but I am not able to use SSIS at all on my PC. I HAVE TO get this resolved.

I am on Windows XP Pro fully patched and updated. I had SQL Express on my PC before and have since uninstalled it to see if that would help.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Error connecting to Oracle via linked server after SP2 installatio

We have a test SQL Server box configured with the following:
Windows 2000, SP4
SQL Server: 8.00.944
Oracle Client Tools: 9.2.0.1
Microsoft ODBC for Oracle: 2.573.9030.00
We built a linked server to a 3rd party Oracle application. We used the
standard "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" drvier from the drop down
list. We created views using this linked server and they worked fine.
However, after installing SP2 of Reporting Services, we now receive the
following error when we attempt to use the views:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server][OLE/DB provider returned
error message: Oracle client and networking components not found. These
components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle
Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation.
Provider is unable to function until these components are installed.]
We use a free SQL Tool called "Toad" to access the Oracle environment. This
tool uses the same Oracle Client Tools referred to in the error message.
This tool continues to function normally.
We really want to take advantage of some of the new features in SP2, but we
can't deploy this on our production SQL Reporting box until we get this issue
resolved. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Grande ApplicationsHello,
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle and Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle
are not supported with any Oracle versions later than 8i. For more
information, click the following article number to view the article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:
244661 Limitations of Microsoft Oracle ODBC Driver and OLE DB Provider
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;244661
Therefore, the cause of the issue is not related to the reporting service.
If you want to use Oracle version 9i, you can use the following settings in
step 3 of this procedure in the article 280106:
280106 How to set up and troubleshoot a linked server to Oracle in SQL
Server
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=280106
However, this configuration is not supported and is discouraged.
Oracle Client Microsoft Windows 2000
9.x
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC\MTxOCI]
"OracleXaLib"="oraclient9.dll"
"OracleSqlLib"="orasql9.dll"
"OracleOciLib"="oci.dll"
You can refer to the article 280106 to set up and troubleshoot a linked
server. I hope the information is helpful.

Thanks much for your response. We were able to resolve the problem by
restarting the SQL server (SQL Server service); however, we have discovered
from others that this resolution has been known to provide only a temporary
fix.
Do you know where I can find a list of all of the files (and file versions)
installed and updated by Reporting Services SP 2? This would be very helpful
to us.
Thank you.
