    There is a way to restore all of the backups, Full, Differential backups from the GUI.

    SQL Server detects the differential and all of the all of the transaction logs associated with the full backup and generates a script to backup the files.

    I googled and I could not find any articles.

    Go someone point in in the right direct?

    Thank you.

    You don't actually need articles on this. Right click on a database, select {Tasks}, {Restore}, {Database}, and observe. The "Script" button will be at the top. Just remember to hit {Cancel} when you're done looking/scripting instead of {OK}.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
